History of the Gretna v Kilmarnock fixture

Kilmarnock face a trip to Gretna at Fir Park on Wednesday evening, and will hope to continue their unbeaten record at the ground. Killie won the only previous game contested between the two teams.

The only previous meeting between Gretna and Kilmarnock at was earlier this season, with Kilmarnock inflicting a narrow 1 - 2 defeat upon the Black and Whites in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Gretna's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Black and Whites have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Kilmarnock's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. Only 4 goals have been registered in this time, with 6 leaked at the wrong end.

Gretna find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 26 games have yielded only 13 points. Kilmarnock are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 25 points from 27 matches.
