by Ian John in Scottish Premiership Predictions
It has been a very tight start to the new Scottish Premiership season and Livingston face Motherwell on Saturday with both teams sitting in the bottom three, although just a few points away from being third in the table, Will Livi bounce back to form with a second home win of the campaign, or can The Well end their run of two straight defeats in the league? Here's our match prediction.
The current league table makes grim reading for both these teams. Aberdeen's recent improvement in form means Livingston are now bottom of the table with six points from their eight games so far, they have also conceded a whopping 18 goals in those games, while scoring ten. Motherwell lie tenth in the table with eight points coming from five draws and a win, with two defeats in their last two games.
Livingston's recent form has seen them lose 3-2 at Dundee, followed by a 2-1 home loss to Rangers. They did scrape a point in their next game, a 1-1 draw away to Dundee United, but they were then well-beaten last weekend, when thrashed 4-0 away to Hibernian.
Motherwell's form has taken a beating in their last two games. Prior to that, they had been unbeaten in the league, drawing 1-1 away at Dundee and then beating Aberdeen 2-0 at home. However since then, they went down to a 3-2 defeat away to Celtic and last weekend were surprisingly beaten 2-1 at home by Falkirk.

Our Livingston vs Motherwell Prediction
Our prediction for the Livingston vs. Motherwell Scottish Premiership match is: BTTS and More than 2.5 Goals.
In what is an incredibly tight Scottish Premiership this season, where just five points separates third from bottom of the table, games such as this can be tricky to predict from a results-based perspective. However, Motherwell's ability to score, and concede goals means that against a Livingston side who have also scored a good number, but conceded a lot more, means that backing both teams to score and the game seeing more than 2.5 goals is a good option.
