Livingston, Recent FormOn the back of a tough 4-1 home defeat by Hibernian, Livingston manager David Martindale will have some work to do to get his team in a confident mindset. They came away from that fixture with 44% of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 1 on target. By comparison, Hibernian managed 12 attempts on goal, with 7 on target.
Martindale\ will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 12 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 4 goals scored. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.
Dundee United, Recent FormLosing 3-1 home to Aberdeen won't leave the Dundee United squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league. They achieved 54% possession in that match and had 24 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against Aberdeen's tally of 9 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
Manager Jim Goodwin will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 3 goals, conceded 15, and picked up a meagre 0 points. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
Serious concerns will be mounting for The Tangerines, having gone without a win in their last 8 league games and lost the last 6 in a row.
Steven Fletcher will be hoping to create problems for Livingston in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Dundee United.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Livingston that came out on top with a 0-1 win.
Livingston have scored in each of their last 7 games at home in the league against The Tangerines.
Dundee Utd have lost the last 3 times they've faced Livingston in the league and have failed to win in their last 4 encounters.
With only Jamie Brandon (Cruciate ligament) and Tom Parkes (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, David Martindale will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Dundee Utd manager Jim Goodwin ahead of this clash, with Ian Harkes (Hamstring) missing out, which gives Goodwin a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
