Livingston and Celtic will battle for three points in a Scottish Premiership matchday 13 clash on Sunday (October 30).
The hosts are coming off a surprise 1-1 draw at Rangers last weekend, having taken a surprise fourth-minute lead through Joel Nouble. They were reduced to ten men with 12 minutes to go after Morgan Boyes received his marching orders five minutes after coming on. John Lundstram scored an injury time equaliser for the hosts.
Celtic, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw against Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Champions League in midweek. Georgios Giakoumakis' 34th-minute strike was cancelled out by Mykhailo Mudryk's 58th-minute equaliser. The draw saw the Bhoys eliminated from European football for the season.
They will turn their attention to the domestic scene, where they hold a four-point advantage atop the standings. Livingston are sixth, having garnered 16 points from 11 games.

Livingston vs Celtic Prediction
Celtic's elimination from European football should enable them to channel all their focus on league action as they seek to retain their title.
Livingston, meanwhile, have performed admirably and are on course to make the Championship playoffs. They have won three of their last five home games, with their last four games not producing more than one goal.
However, Celtic's attacking firepower means they're likely to create multiple goalscoring chances. The Bhoys should claim a comfortable win and also keep a clean sheet.
