Kilmarnock - Livingston predictions

The odds are definitely leaning in the hosts’ favour, but this match is far from a done deal. Judging by odds alone, Livingston may yet be able to walk away with a draw or even a surprise victory – though it’s still a longshot.

It’s hard to believe even the most optimistic Livingston fans are expecting them to triumph at Kilmarnock this Wednesday. It’s a completely one-sided matchup, and the hosts should have no problems steamrolling their opponents.

Kilmarnock’s previous away game against Motherwell was an altogether dull affair as far as the result goes, though they shouldn’t be unhappy with the 1:1 draw. Neither side managed to pull ahead throughout the runtime, but Kilmarnock’s opponents were widely considered the stronger team.

Few were surprised by the away team’s 3:0 loss in the previous round, harsh as that may sound. They were up against impossibly long odds at 29.67 and were also the away team. For now, they should probably look ahead to more even matchups.

Given Livingston_GOALS_CONCEDED goals conceded in their own net over the past 3 matches, Livingston's defensive line is much to be desired.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over Livingston’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

Kilmarnock clearly have the upper hand in this matchup, though it doesn’t seem insurmountable by any means. They won despite a home-field disadvantage the last time they clashed with Livingston, but it was a rather narrow victory.

Wednesday's matchup will see both teams at full strength, free of injuries and suspensions.

An Over 3.5 Goals bet is easily the smartest choice for this fixture, consider in the teams’ respective histories. It’s a considerably more probable outcome than it seems, so the 1 odds are great value.
