Livingston vs St. Mirren: match statistics
Statistical analysis points to a very evenly matched contest between two teams in poor form. Livingston wins only 10% of their home games and has failed to keep a single clean sheet, conceding an average of 2 goals per game. St. Mirren presents even worse away statistics with a 70% loss rate and just 10% wins, also failing to secure a single clean sheet on the road. Both teams are enduring a terrible run—Livingston is winless in their last 5 matches (0.4 PTS/game), and St. Mirren is faring even worse (0.2 PTS/game). The key differentiator is the hosts' higher shot conversion rate (13% vs 7% for the visitors) and slightly better xG metrics. Given the poor disposition of both squads, Livingston's high draw percentage at home (30%), and defensive issues on both sides, sharing the points seems the most likely outcome, though the hosts hold a marginal advantage due to the home field factor.
