Recent respective form guides

Livingston's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Livi have scored 5, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

The away form of Dundee Utd. is pretty dire, managing a paltry 2 draws from the last six matches. While the The Terrors have hit 5 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Livingston find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 33 games have yielded only 15 points. Dundee Utd. see themselves just below half way in the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier, showing a record of 32 points from their 33 games played so far,
