Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Kilmarnock
Match Time & Date:
2 August 2025
15:00
Prediction: 1-1
Livingston
Kilmarnock will be aiming to kickstart their Premiership campaign in style when they welcome Livingston to their Rugby Park on Saturday. The Killie head into the match following a routine 4-0 League Cup win over East Fife, but beating Livingston is easier said than done. Midfielder Kyle Magennis is rated doubtful for the season opener after picking up a knock in the League Cup triumph.
The newcomers, on the other hand, faced no difficulties in a 6-0 crushing of Kelty Hearts, but beating Kilmarnock on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. The good news for the visiting team is that the club chiefs managed to keep hold of top scorer Robbie Muirhead in the summer transfer window. Midfielder Aidan Denholm misses out with injury for the visiting side.
Highlighted Team (Livingston):
Nicknamed the Lions, Livingstone are the Scottish Premier League club founded during the Second World War (1943) under the name of Ferranti Amateurs. Livingston welcome their opponents at Almondvale Stadium, the venue with the capacity of 9,512.
The Lions are known for their amber home kit, with the team wearing white when playing on the travels. Livingston have yet to win the Scottish Premier League title, but they did remarkably well to go all the way in the Scottish League Cup in the 2003/2004 season. The Lions recorded a 2-0 win over Hibernian in the title game played at Hampden Park in Glasgow.
Livingston registered their biggest win against Stranraer (8-0) in August 2012 in the first round of the Scottish League Cup, while their most massive defeat came on December 14, 1974, as they were beaten 8-0 by Hamilton. Legendary Premier League coach Paul Lambert is regarded as one of the club’s most notable players.
