Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Tony Macaroni Arena will host Saturday’s football game between Livingston and Kilmarnock, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. The Lions are stuck at the bottom with only ten points in their pockets and given their seven-game losing run in the national championship, home win should not be considered. Aberdeen boss David Martindale should have a full squad to choose from.
The Killie, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Aberdeen and Kilmarnock and we predict that they will take advantage of the current atmosphere in Livingston’s dressing room. Both Innes Cameron and Kyle Magennis are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team. In their last meeting in the Scottish top flight Kilmarnock defeated Livingston 3-1, which is yet another reason why we are going to bet on the away team.
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.
