Livingston vs Ross County Prediction & Betting Tips

Thursday | 19:00 UTC | Tony Macaroni Arena | Scottish Premiership Relegation Play-Off Final (First Leg)

It’s crunch time in the Scottish Premiership as Livingston host Ross County in the first leg of their relegation play-off final. With the visitors no strangers to this stage, and the hosts chasing a swift return to the top tier, Thursday night promises to be a tense affair in West Lothian.

Livingston vs Ross County Prediction

Ross County are well-acquainted with this high-stakes fixture. They’ve won play-off finals in each of the last two seasons, most notably overcoming a two-goal first-leg deficit against Partick Thistle in 2023 before comfortably dispatching Raith last year. That track record may give them the psychological edge heading into this double-header.

County are winless in their last 9 matches (D2, L7), but as the Premiership side, they are slight favourites to survive once again. They’ll also take encouragement from their away goal in January’s Scottish Cup clash with Livingston, even though they lost that match 3-1 after extra time.

Livingston vs Ross County Prediction

Livingston finished their Championship campaign with a strong home record, picking up 40 points from 12 games at the Tony Macaroni Arena. They’ve scored in nine of their last 12 outings and were reliable in front of goal at home with 31 goals in 18 matches.

Given County’s poor defensive record, just two clean sheets in their last 17, there’s strong reason to believe the Lions will find the net. However, Livi have also been vulnerable defensively, which opens the door for a potential goal from the visitors.
