  4. Holt in bullish form ahead of Dons' visitpublished at 14:08

    Livingston v Aberdeen (15:00)

    Livingston, fifth in the Premiership host Aberdeen this afternoon with the Dons a point ahead of them in fourth spot.

    Gary Holt is urging his Livi troops to banish the memory of their recent defeat by Rangers when they lock horns Aberdeen.

    "It probably says a lot about how far we've come that the boys were disappointed after the game [3-1 loss at Ibrox]," he said.

    "We've kept our standards high all season"

    "But I said to them: 'Get the heads up'. I couldn't be prouder of them for what they produced on the day. We just need to keep working, keep pushing and continue to have pride in what we are doing.

    "We've kept our standards high all season, that's the pleasing thing. It wasn't a case of turning up at Ibrox because it's a big crowd.

    "We've been doing that every game and we need to keep at it, and keep enforcing it. "The day we take our foot off the gas is the day we receive a skelping. We can't afford that."

    Stat attack: Livingston are unbeaten in four home games this season...

    "So, we know they've got a pretty potent threat up top and that's something we'll have to be mindful of.

    Motherwell v Ross County (15:00)

    Motherwell are in in fine fettle ahead of Ross County's visit to Fir Park. The Steelmen, in third place in the Premiership, have claimed the scalps of Hamilton Accies, Hibs and Hearts during an impressive run of form in the league.

    "If we win [this afternoon] we can go into second place, albeit for 24 hours," says Robinson. "There's a little incentive there with teams not playing until the Sunday.

    Victory for Motherwell would steer Stephen Robinson's side to second in the table

    "So we can go into second place but we can't just turn up and expect that to happen. We have to really work hard and do the simple things well, which we've done in previous weeks.

    "We've got players in the team that can win football matches and a solid backbone of a back four. Our expectations are growing but we have to make sure we don't get too carried away. It's a start but that's all it is.

    "It's just the start of the season and we've started well but we can't expect to turn up and just win football matches. We had to work very hard for our win at Hearts and it will be the same [against County]."
