Stenhousemuir 0:0 Livingston — Match Report

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Michael Anderson ran the midfield as Stenhousemuir beat Livingston 3-1 in the League Cup, setting up their next challenge in the competition. The hosts took control early and never let Livingston settle, dominating the second half through sustained pressure.

The match turned when Callum Penman was booked on 47 minutes, a sign of Livingston’s growing frustration as Stenhousemuir seized momentum. Matthew Gillies and Leyton Grant also saw yellow cards late on as the visitors chased the game, but Stenhousemuir’s grip never loosened.

The stats show a split: possession was dead even at 50% each, but Livingston earned four corners to Stenhousemuir’s two, suggesting they pushed forward without reward. Stenhousemuir outplayed their visitors across both halves according to pressure data, and Anderson—rated 7.63 out of ten as a midfielder—was the standout for his composure in the middle. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Stenhousemuir, and the result confirmed that prediction, though the live signal backing Livingston at 2.5 odds was lost.
