Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Following a 1-0 loss to Aberdeen, Motherwell will look to get back on course in the Premiership when they take on Livingston on Saturday. The Well are seven points clear of the relegation zone, meaning that they should be happy with one point from the match. Jack Vale is banned for the match, while all Barry Maguire, Jonathan Obika, and Harry Paton are out of contention with injuries.
The Lions, on the other hand, managed to revive their survival hopes thanks to a 2-0 win over Ross County. Livingston, though, have already suffered 13 defeats on the road this term and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Motherwell’s party at Fir Park. The likes of Cristian Montano, Andrew Shinnie, and James Penrice are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team, while Australia forward Tete Yengi is back from suspension.
Highlighted Team (Motherwell):
Motherwell are professional football club that compete in the Scotland Premiership. The Steelmen play home games at Fir Park, the stadium which can hold up to 13,677 spectators, wearing amber and claret shirts.
White, on the other hand, is the dominant colour of the club’s away kit. Founded in 1886, Motherwell won their first domestic trophy in the 1931/32 season, leaving Scottish giants Rangers and Celtic behind them in the standings. Speaking of the Scottish Cup, the Steelmen have two titles in the cup competition. In the 1951/52 season, Motherwell defeated Dundee 4-0 in the Scottish Cup final, with the team repeating the success 39 years later as they outplayed Dundee United 4-3 in the title game.
The likes of Hamilton Academical and Airdrieonians are regarded as the club’s bitterest rivals. The games between these clubs are known as the Lanarkshire derby. Hughie Ferguson is leading the club’s all-time goal-scoring chart as he netted 284 goals for the Steelmen in league matches.
