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 6, a worringly large 11 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, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Kilmarnock see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 19 points from their 16 games played so far, Aberdeen's 21 points from 16 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 5th position.
