Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Saturday’s football game at Global Energy Stadium pits together Ross County and Livingston, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. Ross County experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a massive 6-1 loss to Hearts and, no doubt, Malcolm Mackay should opt to make changes to the starting XI. All Gwion Edwards, Eamonn Brophy, Ross Callachan, and Ben Paton remain on the sidelines with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Lions, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 2-0 loss to Dundee United. Livingston, though, are on a five-game losing run on the road, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the relegation-threatened Staggies this time out. Defender Ayo Obileye remains on the sidelines with a knee injury, but he should be the only absentee in 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.
