Livi pushing for fourth

Livingston took one step forward towards Aberdeen in the league table as the West Lothian club picked up a win over Hamilton in a six-goal game that ended 4-2. Livi is now six points shy of fourth place.

Livingston is also on a five-game unbeaten run at the Tony Macaroni Arena, where they’ve also won their last four games and have failed to concede a single goal in over 450 minutes, which has lowered their average down to 0.45 goals. Moreover, Gary Holt’s men have found their mojo in attack, netting 10 times in their last four home ties.

Steelmen fighting for Europe

Motherwell made it three games in a row without defeat last weekend as they saw out a goalless game with Hibs at Fir Park, allowing the North Lanarkshire side to remain in 3^rd place and with a comfortable four-point cushion over Aberdeen.

Stephen Robinson’s men are also on a winning streak on the road, grabbing all three points in their last five trips. The side has also kept a clean sheet in four of those games, although they still concede a goal a game. They’re also the fourth-highest scorer away from home in the league, netting 16 goals in their 11 games.

Hosts to continue their run

Both teams come into this game is nearly equal form, with Livingston failing to lose any of their last five home ties and keeping a clean sheet in all of them, whilst Motherwell has won their last five away trips, although they have conceded on one occasion.

We’re going to back over 1.5 Livingston goals here, as the West Lothian outfit has netted an average of 2 goals in their last five home ties and we feel that this trend could continue. We’re also going to back the hosts to win 2-0 here, as their strong defensive record this season favours them heavily and they have kept a clean sheet in 73% of their home ties.
