Livingston learn post-split fixtures as they look to avoid relegation battle

Livingston have learned their post-split fixtures as they look to bounce back from the disappointment of missing out on the top six.

The Lions conceded an equaliser in the third minute of injury-time against Motherwell on Saturday to thwart their hopes of a third successive top half finish for the first time in the club’s history.

They will now battle it out in the bottom six as they look to avoid relegation and secure a fifth straight Premiership campaign.

The Lions go into the final five games sitting eight points clear of 11th placed St Johnstone and 13 clear of basement boys Dundee.

They open the post-split fixtures with an away trip to Aberdeen on April 23 before hosting Hibernian seven days later.

They then take on the current bottom three in succession with a home clash against St Johnstone on May 7 followed by a trip to Paisley to face St Mirren on Wednesday, May 11 before concluding their season at the Tony Macaroni Arena against Dundee on Sunday, May 15 in a 12noon kick-off.
