Notes

Almondvale Stadium is the home ground of Scottish First Division team Livingston F.C. It has a capacity of 10,016.

The Stadium was constructed in 1995 as a joint venture between Meadowbank Thistle FC and the Livingston Development Corporation. Part of the deal involved the relocation of Meadowbank Thistle to the town and a name change to Livingston FC. When the LDC was wound up, ownership of the Stadium was transferred to West Lothian Council.

The Stadium has previously officially been titled the City Stadium due to a sponsorship deal with the City group; it had also previously been called the West Lothian Courier Stadium. However since the club was taken over by the Lionheart Consortium, it reverted back to its original name, Almondvale Stadium.

It is hired by Livingston FC from West Lothian Council every year. As Livingston moved up the divisions into the top flight of Scottish Football, they expanded the stadium to meet Premier League standards.

Gretna played two matches in the stadium, a 3-0 loss against champions Celtic and a 2-1 loss against Inverness Caledonian Thistle, when their temporary home (Fir Park) had problems with its pitch.
