Hibs to take the points
Hibernian have had a decent run of form over the past month; their only losses in their last eight games came against Celtic. Hibs have also had a decent record at home this season, they’ve won five of 10 home games, losing three times. On the other hand, Livingston have lost half of their road games this season, they’ve won just three of 12 games away from home. It’s also fair to point out that Hibernian have lost just once the last 11 times they hosted Livingston; and considering they won seven of those games, Hibs should win at home.
Someone’s blanking
Hibs have kept three clean sheets in their last five games, they’ve also failed to score in two of those five games; at least one side failed to score in four of Hibernian’s last five games. Just like Hibs, Livi have not been a high-scoring team; they’ve scored just seven goals in their last nine games. Conversely, Livingston have conceded just one goal in their last three games; as a result, their games have mostly been one-sided in terms of goals. At least one side failed to score in their last three, and seven of their last nine games. Considering it’s been the same case in four of Hibs’ last five games, at least one of these teams should keep a clean sheet.
A low scoring game
We’ve already established that Livingston have not been a high scoring team; we would also like to point out that only last-placed St Johnstone have scored fewer goals than Livingston this season. Livi’s games tend to be on the low-scoring side as a result; their last three, and eight of their last nine games went under 2.5. In like manner, Hibernian have had their fair share of low-scoring games; as nine of their last 11 games went under the 2.5 goal margin. It’s worth noting that recent meetings between these two have mostly been on the low-scoring side; three of their last four encounters went under 2.5. On that note, this will likely be a low-scoring game.

Hibs
Hibernian have enjoyed a good run of form recently; they’ve won three, drawn one and lost one of their last five games. Hibs will be eyeing their fourth win in six games as Livingston come visiting; will Martin Boyle help his team take all three points from this game?
Livingston
Livingston’s perfect start to the year ended at Rangers in their last match; they now have just two wins in their last five games across all competitions. Livi will hope to bounce back from that loss; it’ll be interesting to see if Bruce Anderson will do enough to secure the win.
