Footymad preview History of the Hibernian v Kilmarnock fixture

Kilmarnock face a trip to Hibernian at Easter Road Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Killie will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 57 and win only 19 of the 99 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in February 2011, the Hibees carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a Scottish Premier match.
