There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the Premiership table so far. Here's the Livingston - St. Johnstone latest:
- Livingston has the most matches over the total-line (14) in Premiership
- St. Johnstone has the fewest clean sheets (0) away in Premiership
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Livingston and St. Johnstone.
Livingston form and stats
5 victories, 3 draws and 5 defeats. That’s what Livingston have to build on here at Tony Macaroni Arena in the Premiership. Livingston has a nice streak going on as they have played eleven consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the St. Mirren defeat 77 days ago.
Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Maksymilian Stryjek not having conceded a league goal in 322 minutes.
It's back home for Livingston, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Aberdeen away with the result 2-0. Nicky Devlin found the net in that victory. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Aberdeen.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Livingston have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found ten matches with the results: Won six, drawn three and lost one.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Premiership game versus Hamilton Academical in only four days. This game is also played here at Tony Macaroni Arena.
The Livingston fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 13 matches. Livingston have conceded 15 in these home matches.
St. Johnstone form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for St. Johnstone, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) away in Premiership, so far with only 14 points returning home. The records show 3-5-6 (win-draw-lose).
Two away games in a row for Johnstone, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Rangers in the Premiership. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Kilmarnock at their stadium, the result 3-2.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found twelve similar matches played by St. Johnstone in our archives, and the results are: two wins for St. Johnstone, four draws and six defeats.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Johnstone have scored 20 goals in 14 league games away. Johnstone have conceded 25 goals in these games.
