Whitburn take on Livi United in all-West Lothian clash

WHITBURN and Livi United do battle in the South Division with both sides hoping to get their title challenge back on track.

Burnie’s dream start has been stinted by dropped points and surprise defeats whereas Livi United have struggled with a string of tough away games holding them back.

United are again the away team this weekend and a win for them could lift them to as high as seventh while a Whitburn victory would make up ground on division leaders Tranent.

The other big West Lothian derby is a battle between mid-tablers Pumpherston and Fauldhouse. Only one point separates the two sides, although the Hoose will go in as favourites on the back of their fantastic 6-1 demolition of Port Glasgow last weekend.

Blackburn take on Spartans while West Calder host Dalkeith.

Harthill host Falkrik while Stoneyburn head to Tranent.
