History of the Dunfermline Athletic v Livingston fixture

Dunfermline A. prepare to entertain Livingston at East End Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Pars are clearly on top, having won 12 and lost only 2 of the 19 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at East End Park was less than a year ago, in December 2004, when they played out a goalless draw in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Dunfermline Athletic's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Pars have scored 6, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

Livingston's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. Livi have conceded 8 goals in these games, and only hit 3 in reply.

Dunfermline A. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 5 points from 14 matches. Livingston find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 14 games have yielded only 5 points.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Dunfermline A. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Pars will at least gain a draw. No-score draw

Dunfermline A. 10 games since last home draw.
