Livingston form and stats
5-0-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Premiership numbers at home for Livingston so far this season.
Livingston lost their last game at Hibernian (placed 7th) after a 0-4 scoreline. Livingston were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one. Konovalov had a busy but productive day in the Hibernian match. Despite making seven saves the loss could not be prevented. Kelly, a forward, was the champion performer for the side in that fixture, earning a rating of 6.84 (out of 10). Kelly hit one key pass.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Celtic (1-2).This is expected to be a close game, with Livingston perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Livingston as a small favourite), we find 10 games. Livingston has won 2 of these, drawn 6 and lost 2.
At Tony Macaroni Arena, Livingston has the goal stats of 8-8 (for/against) from 8 league fixtures.
St. Mirren form and stats
St. Mirren have only collected 3 points from their away games in the Premiership, after 1-0-5 (6 played). A depressing four defeats in a row for Mirren in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Dundee United.
The club members enjoyed St. Mirren's previous match versus Aberdeen (placed 3rd), a 3-1 win played at home. That victory felt nice as this side had gone four league rounds without victory.

Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Rangers.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 11 similar matches played by St. Mirren in our archives, and the results are: 3 wins for Mirren, 5 draws and 3 defeats.
