Livingston, With seven wins and eight defeats, alongside only two draws, Livingston players can be happy that they are still in the hunt for a top-six finish in the first part of the season. But, what they are lacking is goalscoring. There is no balance between scoring and defending, the latter takes the cake as one of the worst aspects of this team.
The hosts don’t have a striker capable of getting goals regularly, they have two players who scored three goals apiece, Joel Nouble and Cristian Montano.
St. Mirren, The visitors have the same amount of wins as their opponents, but also a game in hand. They are at the line that divides the top six from the rest of the pack, but the margins are pretty tight. They have a better efficiency rating scoring four goals more than Livingston, but they also have trouble in the defending department.

Livingston vs St. Mirren Team news
Livingston will be without midfielder Holt after the 29-year-old was sent off in the defeat at Hibernian, with Belgian Stephane Omeonga a likely candidate to replace him in the starting XI.
Martindale will be unable to call on the services of both Jamie Brandon and Tom Parkes due to their groin and knee issues respectively, so Livingston may be forced to name a similar starting lineup to the one that disappointed on Christmas Eve.
St Mirren also have a groin injury in their ranks, with veteran left-back Richard Tait still sidelined after suffering a knock during his side’s 3-0 defeat to Hibernian in late October.
Ethan Erhahon was replaced during the half-time break by goalscorer Kiltie last time out, and the 21-year-old could lose this place in the starting XI for the trip to Livingston.
