History of the Kilmarnock v Glasgow Rangers fixture

Kilmarnock prepare to entertain Glasgow Rangers at Rugby Park on Sunday afternoon, looking to improve on a dire past record against their opponents. It does not make pleasant reading, winning just 18 of the 91 games played, and losing 52.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Rugby Park was less than a year ago, in December 2002, with Rangers inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Killie in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Kilmarnock's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Killie have scored 4, a worringly large 16 have been leaked at the other end.

Kilmarnock see themselves just below half way in the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier, showing a record of 11 points from their 11 games played so far, Rangers are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 26 points from 11 games.
