Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

A tight, highly tactical defensive battle could be in store as Airdrieonians and Livingston go head-to-head, with hardly anything between the teams in terms of who could claim victory. The statistics do not provide any conclusive evidence in that regard, but they are pointing strongly towards there being 2 goals or fewer in the game. That's a prediction available at best priced odds of 1.70 with the bookies, so we've made under 2.5 goals our tip of the day on this one.

Goal Statistics

With a PG of just 0.7, Airdrieonians look set to struggle here. Add in the fact that Livingston haven't conceded a goal in 3 consecutive Championship matches, and it could be a long evening for R. McCabe's men.

Livingston's fans will be hoping for goals on Tuesday evening, not least because Airdrieonians have conceded in each of their last 15 Championship outings. A PG of 1.5 for David Martindale's side suggests that run should continue.
