Match Preview
Hibernian hosts Livingston at Easter Road Stadium on Saturday, 18 October, in a clash that promises to be competitive. Hibs come into the match with a mixed bag of results, having won two of their last five fixtures, while Livingston has shown more consistency, also securing two wins but with a slightly better overall performance. Historically, this matchup has been closely contested, with Hibernian winning five of the last ten encounters. However, Livingston's recent form suggests they could pose a significant threat.
One concrete angle to consider is Hibernian's home advantage. They have a strong record at Easter Road, which could be pivotal in this fixture. The pressure of playing at home might galvanise Hibs, especially as they aim to improve their standing in the league. Conversely, Livingston's ability to score on the road could make for an intriguing contest, particularly given that five of the last ten meetings have seen both teams find the net. Expect a tactical battle, with Hibs likely seeking to assert dominance early on while Livingston looks to exploit any defensive lapses.
