Livingston v Aberdeen: bottom club fight meets survival push | OneFootball

Livingston host Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership's Relegation group on Friday, 1 May 2026 in Livingston, as the bottom side chase a lifeline and the visitors look to cement their position after successive wins.

Recent meetings have leaned the visitors' way. Aberdeen won 6-2 in January and 1-0 at Livingston in November, with a 0-0 draw in September the only stalemate in the last three league clashes.

Livingston arrive off a 2-0 victory at St Mirren after a run of draws and defeats. The Dons have found momentum with back to back home wins over Hibernian and Kilmarnock following a three game winless spell.

Livingston have conceded 66 league goals and kept only three clean sheets, so tightening up will be central. The Dons, who have nine clean sheets, may look to control possession and play through midfield with sharper passing.

Kevin Nisbet leads The Dons' scoring with nine league goals, while Lewis Smith has seven for Livingston and Jeremy Bokila offers added penalty box threat with five.

The Dons sit on 36 points in the Relegation group and a win could further cement second place. Livingston, on 19, need points to cut the gap to the pack and keep their survival bid alive.
