Bitesize Prediction: Dundee FC vs Livingston – 20/09/25

Competition: Scottish Premiership

Market: Under 2.5 goals

Odds: 19/20 @ 1xBet

Two camps who are seeking their own respective Premiership boosts on Saturday afternoon, Dundee will welcome Livingston to Dens Park.

Starting with the hosts, while Dundee might have eventually clung to their Premiership status last season, it is no secret that Steven Pressley’s men are pencilled in as a standout relegation contender this time around. Last seen marking their return from September’s international break with a 1-1 stalemate at home against Motherwell, the Dark Blues have failed to win any of their first five top-flight appearances and they have put just a trio of points on the board. Getting this weekend’s fixtures underway sat down in 11th-place, the former Carlisle boss has a major job on his hands. Signing off August with a worrying 2-0 loss against bitter arch-rivals Dundee United, Pressley’s downbeat squad are desperately seeking an essential boost this weekend. However, continuing on from last season, Saturday’s hosts have gained an unwanted reputation for their struggles in the final third. In fact, Dundee FC have only bagged more than a single strike on home soil against Premiership opposition so far this calendar year.

As for the visitors, although Livingston might have mustered four points from their opening two Premiership appearances, the Lions have largely come crashing back down to earth on either side of September’s international break. Crashing out of the League Cup on August 17th following a 2-0 defeat at home against Hibernian, David Martindale’s men have the feel of a squad desperately seeking an essential boost here. However, without a win from any of their previous four appearances across all competitions and marking their return from September’s fortnight interval with a 0-0 stalemate against Aberdeen, Livingston have shown their own attacking issues. Including a routine 3-0 drumming at the hands of defending Scottish champions Celtic last month, Martindale’s side have drawn a blank in three of their last four showdowns against Premiership opposition. With four of the last five meetings between Saturday’s opponents at Dens Park finishing with under 2.5 goals, we are expecting a similar outcome.
