LIVINGSTON continue to fly under the radar when it comes to the Championship and they look a solid shout to maintain their fine form with a home win against Raith Rovers on Saturday.

David Martindale's relegated side have been largely ignored in favour of plaudits to Falkirk and Ayr United so far this season.

But they are the only unbeaten side in the league and proved their credentials with a hard-fought win at Ayr United last week.

They were under the cosh for most of the game, but they have an excellent defence with Ryan McGowan outstanding and the signing of former Scotland star Danny Wilson looks an excellent piece of business too.

Up front, Stevie May works his socks off and Stephen Kelly is one of the best midfielders in the league.

They've won three of their four home league games this season and face a Raith side who have come nowhere near hitting the heights of last season's play-off final defeat.

They've lost all four of their away games in the league and the 3/4 with McBookie.com looks perfectly acceptable for a home win.

It's Scottish Cup week and there is usually a spot of value to be had.

And none more so than at Musselburgh Athletic where the hosts might not be at the races against Lowland League leaders Caledonian Braves.

The Braves have taken the league by storm this season and are unbeaten after 14 games, ahead of big-spending East Kilbride.

They hammered Celtic B 5-1 in their last game and are clearly a side heading in the right direction.

Musselburgh are top of the East of Scotland Premier League and are clearly no mugs and they narrowly defeated Penicuik Athletic and Darvel to get this far.

But Braves will be a step up in class and they can justify the 17/20 price with McBookie.com

Cove Rangers had a horrendous start to the season, but they have got their act together recently and can pick up a tasty 21/10 win at Montrose with McBookie.com.

Manager Paul Hartley looked in deep trouble at the start of the campaign after just one win in their opening eight games.

But their past two games have seen them win at in-form Alloa and against Queen of the South and they are back on the right track with former Aberdeen duo Fraser Fyvie and Mitch Megginson in form.

Cove have already beaten Montrose this season and can do the double with a Links Park win.
