Hibernian will be hoping to improve on their poor home form, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While Hibees have scored 6, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Livingston's away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the Livi Lions have hit 10 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.
