Aberdeen Preview – Dons to bounce back with three points?
Derek McInnes’ Aberdeen are in third place in the Premiership table, taking 44 points from 25 fixtures. With underperforming Celtic just five points above, the Dons will be eying up a second-place finish this season. So far, Aberdeen have won 12, drawn eight and lost five.
Since a 2-0 home win over Motherwell, McInnes’ side have drawn back-to-back games with St Johnstone and Livingston, failing to score in both. However, they have been very tough to beat in recent months, losing to just Rangers and Ross County since a 4-0 loss to the Gers at Ibrox back in November.
Aberdeen will be looking for a strong finish to the season, starting with three points against Livingston on Tuesday. The bookies have the home team as the 11/8 favourites.
Livingston Preview – Can the Lions keep up stunning form?
Livingston have been in staggering form since David Martindale took over in November. The Livi Lions have won 12 of their last 16 league and cup fixtures. Since a 1-0 league loss to St Mirren in late November, the Lions are unbeaten in 13, winning ten and drawing three.
Livingston have been incredibly hard to beat on their travels in recent months. Before a 0-0 draw with Celtic at Celtic Park in mid-January, the club from West Lothian had won four away league matches on the spin. They have not lost on their travels since a 2-0 reverse at Ibrox in October.
