The title battle in Scotland remains extremely contested, and the temporary leader Hearts faces the bottom-ranked Livingston this week. The hosts seem almost certain to be relegated, having recorded only one win in 31 matches played this season. In comparison, Hearts have already accumulated 20 victories, but their recent form is not as convincing as it appears at first glance.
Hearts feel the pressureThe team has failed to record two consecutive league wins in recent weeks, suggesting that the pressure in the title race is taking its toll. Nevertheless, Hearts have a significant advantage in head-to-head encounters, having won the last five matches against Livingston. At the same time, however, they have lost their last three away games this season, which cannot be overlooked.
Prediction: Under 3.5 goalsLivingston may rarely win, but they often draw matches and even recently managed to earn a point against Rangers. I expect a more cautious match in which Hearts will seek victory but without taking unnecessary risks. This leads me to select under 3.5 goals for the match.
