Prediction: 0-0
Livingston
Global Energy Stadium will host Saturday’s football game between Ross County and Livingston, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Premiership standings. The Staggies are eyeing their third win of the season and their defensive performance in a hard-fought 1-0 win over Kilmarnock is giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Livingston. Midfielder Ben Paton has yet to overcome a knee injury, but he should be the only absentee in the home team.
The Lions, on the other hand, were on the verge of beating St Mirren at home before the international break, but Stav Nachmani’s late goal eventually helped the Saints pick up one point from the match. Ross County and Livingston seem to be evenly matched at the moment and, taking everything into account, the share of spoils is on the horizon. Midfielder Cristian Montano is sidelined with a calf problem for the visiting team.
