• Livingston has netted an average of 1.75 goals on their travels, scoring at least once in all but one game.

Staggies finding it hard at home

Ross County comes into this game on the back of a fresh defeat to Kilmarnock on Saturday and making it six losses from their last eight games, with the other two fixtures ending as draws. Their form at Victoria Park is slightly better, although they’ve only managed four wins there all season.

The Staggies also have the second-worst defence in the league whilst at home, where they’ve let in 21 goals in their 11 home times this campaign, which is 1.91 goals on average. Things aren’t any better for the club in attack as they’re also the joint-second lowest scorers on home turf, netting just 14 times.

Livi on the rise

In stark contrast, Livingston secured their fourth consecutive win with a convincing 1-0 victory over 3^rd-placed Motherwell. However, Livi still struggles with results on the road, where they’ve picked up just 10 points in 12 games.

The West Lothian side also has the second-worst away record in the league, as they’ve let in a whopping 26 goals on their travels. However, Gary Holt’s side is also the third-highest scoring team away from home, netting 21 times for an average of 2.17 goals.

Both sides with goalscoring tendencies

Despite the teams coming into this game in very different form, their recent stats paint a different picture. Ross County has failed to win seven of their home ties this season and has both the second-worst defence and attack in the division whilst playing at Victoria Park. Moreover, Livi’s away form isn’t any better, as they too have failed to win 10 of their 12 away games this season.

We’re going to back both teams to score for this game, as it has happened in 7 of Ross County’s 11 home games and in 11 of Livingston last 12 away days. Moreover, we’re also backing a final score of 1-1, with the Staggies scoring 1.27 times on average this season and only failing to so twice, with the visitors netting 1.75 times on the road and scoring at least once in all but one game away from home.
