Match Facts
Motherwell are unbeaten in 14 top-flight home games against Livingston (W11 D3) since a 5-1 defeat in October 2002 under Terry Butcher. The Steelmen have won their last four such games in a row.
After their 2-0 win in October, Livingston could pick up successive top-flight wins over Motherwell for the first time since December 2002, when they won five in a row.
Motherwell have lost their final league match in four of the last six calendar years (W2), although one of the two exceptions in this time was in 2021 when they beat Livingston 2-1.
Livingston have won just one of their last 18 away league games (D2 L15), losing their last six in a row on the road.
Since winning three of their first four Scottish Premiership games in 2023-24 (D1), Motherwell have failed to win and picked up just six points in 15 matches (D6 L9), the fewest of any side in that time.
