Rangers have performed better than Livingston so far this season, but every game starts at 0-0. Here's all you need to know about the upcoming game:

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Europa League match only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Standard Liège.

Rangers form and stats

5-0-0 (win-draw-lost) are the Premiership numbers at home for Rangers, who have the most scored goals (26) in Premiership, so far this season.

Rangers are confident in defense, having played 183 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.

Happy days for Rangers in their previous game, a Europa League match away at Standard Liège that ended with a 2-0 victory. In the game before, an away victory in the Premiership match versus Celtic with a 2-0 scoreline.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Lech Poznań are coming to town in four days.

Livingston form and stats

The visitors are W1-D1-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Premiership.

Livingston might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Kilmarnock proved too strong as Livingston slumped to a 1-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Tony Macaroni Arena. A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Alloa Athletic.

As mentioned above, the bookmakers do not believe the away team will get anything from this match. Checking Livingston's match history for similar games we find two matches. The home team won two of these as expected, one of them by at least two goals. Livingston managed zero draws and zero surprise wins.

Livingston have scored 7 goals on their travels this season, from 5 away games in the league. Livingston's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 9 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

The two sides played each other earlier this season: Livingston - Rangers 0-0. Last ten meetings between the teams: Rangers won seven, Livingston won two and one draw. four games with over 2,5 goals, six matches with two goals or less.
