'Livi look devoid of confidence'

Sportscene presenter Steven Thompson has had his say on which Premiership side is struggling the most, and it's bad news for Livingston fans.

David Martindale's side sit bottom of the league, with just ten points from their 14 games.

"The one team who I would say, at this minute in time, really need something is Livingston," Thompson said on the BBC's Scottish Football Podcast.

"They've hit a really, really bad patch. They struggled at the weekend against St Mirren. The goal they conceded was an own goal, which is unlucky.

"They look devoid of confidence, they're on a dreadful run. The one thing that will keep them a wee bit buoyant is that when they look above them, Aberdeen are only three points above them.

"It's still very much open, and a very difficult league to call. You would expect that the bigger clubs with the bigger budgets and squads, will start to climb.

"The league table is fascinating in many ways, there's so little in it. There's been a lack of consistency from pretty much everyone in the league. Overall the season is proving to be very difficult to predict."
