Recent respective form guides

Dunfermline Athletic's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. While Pars have scored 8, a worringly large 19 have been leaked at the other end.

Kilmarnock's away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. While the Killie have hit 4 goals, 8 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Dunfermline Athletic are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 14 points from 17 matches.
