Ross County prepare to entertain Livingston at Victoria Park on Saturday afternoon, hoping to break their duck against the visitors. There have only been 2 against the opposition from the 7 matches played by the County.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Victoria Park was earlier this season, as the visitors ran out cosy 1-4 winners in a Scottish Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Ross County have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. While County have scored 5, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.

Livingston's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Livi have hit 9 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Ross County are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 43 points from 34 matches. Livingston see themselves just below half way in the Irn Bru Scottish Division One, showing a record of 45 points from their 34 games played so far,
