Cortex Pick
pro tierCortex projects: Aberdeen win
Aberdeen's h2h superiority is emphatic — 21 goals scored to 6 conceded across 10 meetings, including a 6-2 demolition in January. Livingston's season record (1W-13D-19L, GD -31) reflects a side that rarely wins and leaks goals consistently. Aberdeen's form (W-W-L-L-D) is patchy but their quality gap over Livingston is structural, not situational.
- Aberdeen lead h2h 6-1-3 over 10 meetings; scored 21 vs Livingston's 6 — structural dominance.
- Aberdeen 6-2 win at this venue in January 2026 is the most recent form signal between these sides.
- Livingston rank 12 with GD -31 and 1W-13D-19L; worst defensive record in the group by margin.

Aberdeen's h2h superiority is emphatic — 21 goals scored to 6 conceded across 10 meetings, including a 6-2 demolition in January. Livingston's season record (1W-13D-19L, GD -31) reflects a side that rarely wins and leaks goals consistently. Aberdeen's form (W-W-L-L-D) is patchy but their quality gap over Livingston is structural, not situational. Both sides have combined for high-scoring h2h fixtures; BTTS is supported by Livingston's attacking output (6 GF last 5) even if their defense is porous.
Goals lines
Player props
3 callsBookmakers price player performance lines loosely — this is where the AI hunts the edge.
Armstrong averages 1.99 key passes per 90 across 42 apps/2753 min — line of 1.5 sits comfortably below his season average. Creative hub for Aberdeen in open play.
Muirhead averages 2.19 shots per 90 across 35 apps/1769 min — highest shot volume in Livingston's squad. Line of 1.5 is below his per-90 average; Livingston will need to attack to stay in this game.
Period markets
2 callsThree of the last four h2h fixtures produced goals (6-2, 0-1, 5-1). Aberdeen's attacking intent from recent wins and Livingston's defensive frailty (GD -31) make a first-half goal highly probable.
Livingston's desperation at home in a relegation context combined with Aberdeen's willingness to push in open play supports late-game goal probability. Both sides concede regularly — 14 GA combined in last 5.
