Livingston form and stats

Livingston have only collected 10 points from their away games in the Premiership, after 2-4-7 (13 played).

The supporters enjoyed Livingston's previous game versus St. Mirren (placed 10th), a Premiership 2-1 win played at home. It was a Scottish Cup defeat before that one as the away game against Inverness CT wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Livingston are huge outsiders in this game. Running a check in our games database we found nine matches where they were as big outsiders as an away team. Results were one win, five draws and three defeats. Of the defeats, three games were lost by at least two goals margin.

The travelling fans enjoy Livingston's attacking play in away games, having scored 21 goals in 13 league matches away. The Livingston manager G. Holt has some worries about the defense as 28 goals have been conceded in these travels.
