Livingston v Falkirk: survival fight meets top-half push | OneFootball

Livingston host Falkirk in the Scottish Premiership on Wednesday, 4 February 2026 in Livingston, with bottom facing sixth in a match that pitches a survival bid against a top-half push.

These sides drew 1-1 in November after Livingston beat Falkirk 3-1 in August, so the head to head this season has been tight despite their league gap.

Livingston are winless in their last five league matches, drawing with St Mirren and Kilmarnock but losing to Hearts, Aberdeen and Motherwell. The Bairns have three wins from their last five league games, including 4-1 against Hibernian and 2-0 at St Mirren, with defeats coming home and away to Celtic.

Defensively, Livingston have conceded 50 goals and kept one clean sheet, while the Bairns have allowed 31 and recorded seven shutouts. John McGlynn's side average 50% possession with 77.11% pass completion, and their 392 open play crosses at 21.68% accuracy point to a steady supply line and four headed goals. The hosts, by contrast, sit at 46% possession with 75.90% passing and lower crossing efficiency.

In the final third, Jeremy Bokila leads Livingston with five league goals, while Brian Graham has four for the Bairns and Calvin Miller's six assists underline his threat as a provider. Wide service could be a key route for the visitors, while the hosts may look to Bokila to carry their attack.

A home win would take Livingston to 14 points and trim the gap to Kilmarnock on 17 in the relegation fight. Victory would move the Bairns to 36 points, level with fifth placed Hibernian on the current standings, strengthening their top half position.
