David Martindale’s side suffered a 2-1 defeat St Mirren last time out, ending two match league winning streak. They will be looking to bounce back on Saturday as they hope to climb into the top half of the table.

Livingston have not lost to Ross County in their last eight encounters, picking up five wins in the run and they have won five of their last six meetings with at the Tony Macaroni Arena. They should therefore feel confident of getting back on track in this tie.
