Motherwell
Livingston
- Stuart Kettlewell named an unchanged Motherwell team after the Well held St Mirren at home in a 0-0 draw in Paisley, before a Christmas Eve defeat to Rangers where they lost 2-0 at Fir Park.
- Bevis Mugabi started alongside Shane Blaney and Stephen O'Donnell in the Steelmen's backline, as Georgie Gent and Brodie Spencer continued at left wing-back and right wing-back respectively.
- Callum Slattery, Davor Zdravkovski and Harry Paton occupied the other positions in Motherwell's midfield. Blair Spittal supported the Steelmen's sole striker Mika Biereth in attack.
- Davie Martindale named four changes to the Livingston team that saw Celtic sweep them aside on Saturday 2-0 at Parkhead, before their midweek match with St Johnstone ended in a goalless stalemate.
- Shamal George replaced Jack Hamilton between the sticks. Ayo Obileye was the only defender to retain his place, as Mikey Devlin and Michael Nottingham took Tom Parkes and Luiyi De Lucas' places in the back three.
- The only other alteration saw Jamie Brandon drop out, as Joel Nouble started at the unorthodox position of right wing-back. Kurtis Guthrie came back into the starting eleven, to partner Bruce Anderson in attack.
