DLLLLD ⚠

It’s been all too rare in recent times where Livingston have shown defensive steel. The facts show that Livingston have seen their defence breached in 6 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 15 goals on the way.

Taking a look at their past results, Livingston:

• have not beaten Rangers in their last 20 league matches. A shocking run, it really is.

Rangers

LDWWDW

Rangers will come into the meeting following a 4-2 Premiership win with the defeat of Hearts in their most recent game.

In that match, Rangers managed 57% possession and 19 attempts at goal with 4 of them on target. The scorer for Rangers was Youssef Chermiti (39', 57', 90'). At the other end, Hearts got 8 attempts on goal with 3 on target. Marc Leonard (16'), Michael Steinwender (19' Own goal) and Braga (30') scored for Hearts.

With their forward play coming to the fore of late, Rangers have enjoyed getting themselves a surfeit of goals over their last 6 encounters (19 to be exact). That translates to an impressive mean average of 3.17 goals scored per match during this period of time. That kind of trend might not be continued into this game, though.

Pre-game facts show that Rangers:

• haven't been beaten by Livingston in games played away from home for the previous 10 league matches. Travelling fans must really look forward to this fixture.
• are undefeated in their last 4 away league matches.
• are without an away win for the past 2 matches in the league.

👥 Head to head

A quick look at past results between these clubs stretching back to 12/08/2023 tells us that these fixtures have been a source of anguish for Livingston. They’ve not been able to get any victories at all while Rangers have been dominant against them, beating them in 100% of those games played.

19 goals were scored between the two sides in this period, with 2 for Livi Lions and 17 created by The Gers. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 3.17.

The last league fixture featuring these sides was Premiership match day 13 on 22/11/2025 which ended up with the score at Rangers 2-1 Livingston.

On that occasion, Rangers had 73% possession and 9 shots on goal with 2 on target. The goals were scored by Emmanuel Fernandez (9') and Mohamed Diomande (78').

For their opponents, Livingston had 9 shots at goal with 2 of them on target. Tete Yengi (18') was the scorer.

The referee was Ross Hardie.

📰 Team News: Livingston

We think that Livi Lions will probably use the 3-5-2 system in the match featuring Jerome Prior, Brooklyn Kabongolo, Danny Wilson, Ryan McGowan, Danny Finlayson, Macaulay Tait, Emmanuel Danso, Scott Pittman, Cristian Montano, Lewis Smith and Robbie Muirhead.

📰 Team News: Rangers

Rangers boss Danny Röhl has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Nedim Bajrami (Muscle injury), Bailey Rice (surgery), Connor Barron (Knee injury) and Derek Cornelius (Muscle injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

We’re of the thinking that The Gers appear most likely to elect for a 4-2-3-1 formation, choosing Jack Butland, Dujon Sterling, John Souttar, Emmanuel Fernandez, Tuur Rommens, Tochi Chukwuani, Nicolas Raskin, Andreas Skov Olsen, Ryan Naderi, Mikey Moore and Youssef Chermiti.

💡 Prediction

Rangers will probably be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.

However, Livingston may well find it hard getting on the scoresheet but we think it’s quite likely that they will be scoring here.

We’re therefore expecting to see a pretty comfortable 1-3 winning score for Rangers after 90 minutes.
