Hearts squared off with Livingston in the Premier League of Scotland action on January 3. The game ended 1-0 in Hearts's favor.
On the 18th minute, Craig Halkett netted the only goal of the match, putting Hearts ahead and ultimately sealing the victory.
All eyes turn to the pitch as the upcoming encounter sees Hearts and Livingston prepare to meet again, 4 months after their previous Premier League meeting which Hearts won 1-2. Hearts come into this match following a defeat to Hibernian on December 27, looking to bounce back with a stronger performance. A more organized backline could be the foundation for success, since their defense has shown cracks, having conceded goals in each of their last three home matches.
Livingston's form has been disappointing in the same manner, approaching this match after three consecutive defeats to Dundee United, Celtic and St. Mirren, leaving them without a victory in their last eighteen outings. Their inability to keep a clean sheet has been evident, as they have struggled to keep opponents from scoring, conceding in their last fourteen matches.
This Scottish Premiership clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of Hearts and Livingston.

With ten goals in Scottish Premiership, Shankland is Hearts’s top scorer in the league, while Kyziridis remains their top assist provider in the competition with six. Hearts have also relied on Harry Milne, Craig Halkett and Stuart Findlay to energize their attack through key shots and passes.
Meanwhile, Livingston’s offensive unit, shaped by David Martindale’s vision, has leaned on Robbie Muirhead and Jeremy Bokila, their main scorer, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. Bokila leads Livingston’s scoring charts in Scottish Premiership this season with five goals, with Montano leading their creative tally in the league with three assists. Graham Carey, Scott Pittman and Macaulay Tait have made their presence felt as well, chipping in with decisive contributions in attack.
