Footymad preview History of the Airdrie United v Livingston fixture

Airdrie United prepare to entertain Livingston at New Broomfield on Friday evening, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 10 of the 20 previous games, with the Diamonds winning just 4.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at New Broomfield was just last season, in July 2011, where Livingston annihilated the Diamonds 0-5 in a Scottish Challenge Cup match.

Recent respective form guides

Airdrie United's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Diamonds have scored 9, a worringly large 15 have been leaked at the other end.

Livingston's away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. While the Livi have hit 7 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Airdrie United are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 10 points from 10 matches.

Livingston's 13 points from 10 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 5th position.
