- Livingston are winless in their last five (D2, L3) Premiership matches.
- Dundee FC have lost their last two games but have won the last three meetings with Livi.
Livi and Dee locked in relegation battle
FC Livingston have lost three straight Premiership games, the most recent of which was a 0-1 defeat to Aberdeen at home, while Dundee FC have lost consecutive games too, with a 1-0 defeat at Celtic followed by a 1-3 loss at home to Aberdeen.
At 1.89, Livingston are slight favorites for Saturday’s game with Dundee FC at 3.9, but the FC Livingston vs Dundee FC prediction is that the bookmakers seem to have got this fixture all wrong. Dee are only slightly ahead of the West Lothian club in the standings - 11th with 12 points from 16 games, to Livi’s eight from 15 in 12th.
This has been a season of struggle for both clubs, but it is Livi that have found themselves bottom of the Premiership standings in 12th place after 15 games. David Martindale’s pragmatic, structure-first approach has kept the club afloat, but his team’s failure to take advantage of chances against the weaker clubs in the division has cost them this term.
Goals at both ends likely in bottom-half battle
Livi have taken just one point from their last two home games, so their form at the Tony Macaroni Arena is not encouraging. They have won just once in six Premiership home games, drawing once and losing four, so this FC Livingston vs Dundee FC preview suggests Dundee will fancy their chances if they can continue the good run they have had over Livi of late.
The Dees have won the last three games between the two clubs in Premiership 2025/2026 and this FC Livingston vs Dundee FC prediction will mean a lot to both clubs with this fixture usually meaning so much at the bottom of the standings.
Dundee’s last victory over Livi was in the Premiership, a 3-2 win at home two months ago, and a similar result looks likely given the stats for this game and the way in which these two clubs play. Martindale’s side like to sit deep and pick their moments, but have lacked the firepower to take their fair share of chances in recent games.
Jeremy Bokila is Livingston’s most potent weapon with four goals in 14 Premiership appearances, while Cameron Congreve, Dundee’s creative spark, has six assists in the same number of games. Here are our FC Livingston vs Dundee FC betting tips for this potentially crucial encounter.
Dundee Dees have a good away record against Livi
Dundee’s game plan is more proactive, with Steven Pressley’s side looking to press their opponents high up the field and then play in short, sharp combinations. Both teams have been poor defensively this term, which is why the FC Livingston vs Dundee FC prediction for the Both Teams To Score market is almost even at 1.96.
Pressley has done a good job with the men he has had available since taking over in June 2025 and his team will provide a strong test for Livi on Saturday. The Dees have shipped 15 goals in eight away games this year, but Livi have conceded at a rate of 1.67 per game at the Tony Macaroni so far.
Dundee’s away form isn’t great, but they have won the last three meetings against Livi, who have failed to win their last two at home to the Dee, so a low-stakes wager on the visitors could be a safe play in this bottom-half clash.
