History of the Kilmarnock v Aberdeen fixture

Kilmarnock prepare to entertain Aberdeen at Rugby Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Killie are clearly on top, winning 52.22% of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Rugby Park was less than a year ago, in March 2007, with Aberdeen inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the Killie in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Kilmarnock's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Killie have scored 7, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Aberdeen's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Dons have hit 7 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Kilmarnock's 7 points from 4 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 6th position. Aberdeen see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 2 points from their 4 games played so far,
