LDLWDW ⚖
Livingston go into this clash following a 8-0 League Cup win against Forfar Athletic in their most recent fixture.
For Livingston, goals were scored by Tyrese Sinclair (11'), Graham Carey (19', 78'), Robbie Muirhead (30', 50'), Stevie May (35'), Aidan Denholm (53') and Joe Boggan (73').

Prediction
When taking all factors into account, Livingston should be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.
In contrast, Stenhousemuir will not find it easy to make a breakthrough but we do fancy them pulling one back during this clash.
Accordingly, we see a controlled 1-3 win for Livingston when all’s said and done.
