County game gives chance 'to turn season' - Holt
- Published
Livingston's home encounter with Ross County is "a game of big importance" to the hosts, says midfielder Jason Holt.
His side could move off the bottom of a highly-congested Scottish Premiership table on Saturday if results go their way, with Livi aware of just how tight the league is.
“Obviously we’ve not been on a great run but we’ve all been in football long enough to know a couple of results can turn our season so we’re hoping we can start that on Saturday and get ourselves into a more healthy position in the league," Holt said.
“When you look at the league table – and we don’t tend to do that too much when it’s this early in the season – you can see there’s not a lot between the teams points-wise. If we can get that victory, hopefully this Saturday, then it can catapult our season.
“Regardless of the result the other night [between Ross County and St Mirren], Saturday was always going to be a difficult game and a game of big importance for us.
“We’ve punched above our weight for the past three or four seasons, certainly since I’ve been here,” he said.
“I’ve been in this position before where we’ve gone four, five or six games with defeats and we’ve always come out the other side so I’m confident we can do that again.
“In the games we’ve lost, there’s not been a lot in them in terms of performances and chances between both sides."
