Our predictions for Livingston vs Hibernian
Match Prediction: Livingston 1-2 Hibernian
Livingston will be looking to bounce back from a series of disappointing results, including a heavy defeat to Hibernian in a recent encounter. Their current form suggests a struggle to find the net and a vulnerability at the back, which could be exploited by Hibernian's attacking prowess. However, playing at home might give Livingston the boost they need to put up a more competitive performance, focusing on a solid defensive structure and quick counter-attacks.
Hibernian, on the other hand, have shown they can be a formidable force, especially after their convincing victory over Livingston earlier on. Their recent results indicate a mixed bag, but they have the capability to dominate possession and create scoring opportunities. If Hibernian can maintain their discipline and capitalise on Livingston's defensive frailties, they should be able to secure another win in this fixture.
Livingston's recent form has been poor, with four losses and one draw in their last five matches. This run of results, including a 4-0 thrashing by Hibernian, suggests a team struggling to find consistency and confidence. Their inability to secure a win, particularly at home, could weigh heavily on their performance in this upcoming match. Livingston will need to tighten up defensively and find a way to convert their chances if they hope to turn their fortunes around against Hibernian.

Hibernian
Hibernian have had a more varied run of form, with two wins, two losses, and a draw in their last five games. Their convincing victory over Livingston earlier in the season highlights their potential to dominate this fixture. However, their recent loss to Rangers and draw against Celtic show that they can be vulnerable against strong opposition. If Hibernian can replicate their performance from the last meeting with Livingston, they should be well-positioned to secure another victory.

Head-to-Head Record
Hibernian have dominated recent encounters with Livingston, winning three of their last five meetings, including a 4-0 victory in their most recent clash. Livingston managed a win and a draw in two of these matches, however. This head-to-head record suggests that Hibernian have the upper hand in this fixture and will be confident going into the match.
Livingston's predicted lineup suggests a focus on defensive solidity with Brenet and Montano providing width, while Sylla and Tait anchor the midfield. The inclusion of Bokila up front indicates an intent to exploit any defensive lapses from Hibernian with quick counter-attacks.
Hibernian's predicted lineup emphasises a strong defensive core with Bushiri, Hanley, and Iredale, aiming to control the game's tempo through midfielders Barlaser and McGrath. The attacking pair of Bowie and Klidje will look to capitalise on any opportunities created by the midfield.
Key Battles & Players to Watch
Jeremy Bokila vs Grant Hanley: This matchup will see Livingston's forward Bokila test Hibernian's defender Hanley with his physical presence and goal-scoring threat.
Mohamad Sylla vs Chris Cadden: Livingston's midfielder Sylla will need to outmanoeuvre Hibernian's Chris Cadden to control the midfield and dictate the game's pace.
Scott Pittman (Livingston): Pittman's versatility and ability to influence the game in midfield make him a crucial player for Livingston's chances of securing a result.
Josh Mulligan (Hibernian): Mulligan's energy and creativity in midfield will be vital for Hibernian as they look to break down Livingston's defence and create scoring opportunities.
