Livingston vs Hearts Predictions

• Hearts have only lost one of the last 14 meetings between these two
• Four of the six combined games that these two have played have gone over 3.5 goals
• Livingston have shipped five goals in their last two matches

Jambos’ should be able to get the win

Hearts showed plenty of fight to battle back from 3-0 down to secure a point against Motherwell last time out and they should be able to take all three points from Livingston when the pair meet on Saturday.

The Jam Tarts have won two of their three league games this term, beating Aberdeen 2-0 at home to start the season before beating Dundee United 3-2 on the road.

Livi drew 2-2 with Kilmarnock in their opener before getting the better of fellow promoted side Falkirk. However they followed that with a 2-0 defeat to Hibs in the cup and were subsequently outclassed 3-0 by Celtic.

David Martindale’s team do tend to be stronger at home, thanks in part to their plastic pitch, but their record against these opponents leaves plenty to be desired.

Livingston have only won one of the last 14 head-to-heads and have lost the last three meetings between this pair.

Hearts have been in fine form going forward, scoring eight times in three league games, and should be too strong for their hosts.

Considering Livi have been leaky at the back at times, it may be worth siding with a 3-1 win for Hearts for correct score purposes.
