Livingston (Home)
- Livingston have failed to win any of their last two home games, drawing once and losing once.
- With Livingston coming off a run of five games without a win (1 Draw, 4 Defeats) and United on a run of 5 games (1 Win, 3 Draws, 1 Defeat), this game looks to be a real dogfight.
- With just 1 win, 2 draws and 4 defeats from 7 home games in the Scottish top flight this season, Livingston have made a pretty miserable home record for themselves.
Dundee United FC (Away)
- There are only twelve points between 8th placed Dundee United FC on 21 points from 18 games and 12th placed Livingston on 9 points from 17 in the Premiership 2025-2026 season.
- Dundee United FC have been in mixed form on their travels in the Prem this term, winning 1, drawing 5 and losing 2 of their 8 games.
Key Players
- David Martindale has been doing a fine job at the helm of Livingston since December 2020 and has instilled a very clear style and work ethic amongst his players.
- They’re patient in possession, but quick to counter when they win it back.
- Living on the edge of the box and being a threat from set pieces is Livingston’s way of playing.
- Jim Goodwin has taken United to another level since his appointment in March 2023 and the Dundee club play a high-tempo, high-energy game where the wing-backs fly up and down the flanks, the team presses high to try and create overloads and the game is dictated in the transition phases.
-
Players to watch:
- Tete Yengi has scored 2 of Livingston’s last 3 goals and looks like he could be a key man in their attack on Tuesday, whilst Jeremy Bokila leads the line with 5 goals in 16 Prem games and is always a threat up top for the hosts.
- Ivan Dolcek is United’s top scorer with 5 goals in 16 games, but Zachary Sapsford has been their clinical finisher of late, scoring 2 of their last 5 goals and bringing a bit of dynamism to their forward line.
Head-to-Head
- The last 5 meetings between these sides in the Premiership have seen each side win once and 3 draws.
- The Terrors average 1.38 goals per away game in the Premiership this term and are always dangerous in transition, whilst Livingston average 1.43 goals per home game in the Premiership, but they’ve dropped key points by being caught out defensively far too often.
Betting Insights
However, Both Teams To Score at 1.95 is an attractive price given the recent scoring returns of both sides and should be the go-to bet on this one.
Prediction
At 2.5 , Livingston are slight favourites for this home match, but with the visitors still trying to find their winning formula on their away trips and the West Lothian side struggling at home, we’ll side with the Terrors here.
