Livingston have failed to score in their last 5 away matches (Premiership). Livingston have failed to win 12 of their last 13 matches (Premiership). St. Johnstone are undefeated in 11 of their last 12 home matches against Livingston in all competitions.
Callum Davidson made two changes, one of which was enforced, after St Johnstone's 1-0 defeat to Hibernian at Easter Road before beating Tayside rivals Dundee 3-1 at McDiarmid Park in their last Scottish Premiership match. Jamie McCart was shown two bookings against the Hibees, and therefore had to sit the Tayside derby out. Hayden Muller also dropped to the bench, the defenders being replaced by Lars Dendoncker making his first Saints start. Liam Craig became Saints' record appearance holder with a staggering 442 matches in blue and white. Stevie May also entered the fray, sealing the deal for Saints just after half time after Chris Kane ended his drought with a brace. David Martindale made three changes to the Livingston team that made it back-to-back league losses following their 3-0 defeat to Hearts at Tynecastle with a 1-0 home loss to St Mirren prior to the international break. Club captain Nicky Devlin made way at right back, as did midfield duo Adam Lewis and Ben Williamson. In came Jackson Longridge at left-back, Stephane Omeonga in midfield and Alan Forrest on the left flank. Andrew Shinnie scored Livi's last league goal, the winner over Celtic. Since then, the Lions have failed to score in three matches in all competitions, which includes elimination in the Premier Sports Cup to Rangers and league losses to Hearts and St Mirren.
Eighth meets 10th with St Johnstone hosting Livingston, the two teams having won a combined three matches from the 16 league games played between them. Saints have claimed just two league victories in their eight Scottish Premiership games so far this season, with their first home victory coming in such a convincing fashion against Tayside rivals Dundee. While Saints have been dubbed traditionally slow starters, it's taken longer than expected for them to click into gear this campaign and they'll be hoping to start gathering momentum. As for Livingston, their relegation fears grow week by week. Just when we thought that the superb win over Celtic was going to kickstart their season, they've been dealt some tricky ties and with no goals in their last three matches in all competitions, the Lions have to find their shooting boots if they're to stave off the drop and secure Premiership football in West Lothian for another year. St Johnstone may feel aggrieved by the international break's arrival, but it shouldn't get the better of them against a Livingston team that can't score at present. 2:0
