Preview: Livingston (H)

We prepare for the visit of Livingston to Leith this Saturday (14 March) in William Hill Premiership action - read the full match preview below!

THE LOWDOWN

Hibs will welcome the West Lothian club to Easter Road Stadium for a 3pm kick-off this weekend following a break in the schedule for the Club.

David Gray's men were last in action two weekends ago, as we played out a 3-3 draw at Dens Park. 

Owen Elding, Ante Šuto and Jamie McGrath were all on target as we twice took the lead over Dundee, though a last-gasp strike from Cameron Congreve earned the hosts a point. 

We are currently on a three-match unbeaten run in the league, as wins over St Mirren and Celtic preceded the six-goal thriller in Dundee. 

TEAM NEWS

Following a brief spell on the sidelines, Club Captain Joe Newell returned to the matchday squad last time out at Dens Park.

The Dundee fixture came too soon for wing-back Chris Cadden, though he had already returned to full training ahead of the match. 

The wing-back, as well as fellow recent absentees Grant Hanley and Jordan Obita, played in a behind-closed-doors bounce game during the break. 

Josh Mulligan is the only long-term absentee in the squad.

Head Coach David Gray will provide a squad update to the media later this week at HTC. 

THE VISITORS

Livingston currently remain bottom of the William Hill Premiership; having accrued 14 points from 29 games this season.

Seeking to chip away at the seven-point gap between themselves and Kilmarnock, who are currently placed just above Livi in 11th, the Lions recently appointed Marvin Bartley as manager. 

The former Hibs player is yet to pick up his first win as Livi boss despite not losing in his last three matches. Initial narrow defeats under Bartley, to Falkirk and Celtic, were improved upon - with draws against Dundee, Rangers and St Mirren earning Livingston crucial points in recent weeks.

Our last meeting with Livi at Easter Road, in October 2025, resulted in our largest win of the season so far.

Thibault Klidjé and Jamie McGrath, from the penalty spot, both scored to give us a comfortable two-goal advantage before Junior Hoilett nabbed a late brace to secure our dominant 4-0 victory on home soil.
