History of the Hamilton Academical v Kilmarnock fixture

Kilmarnock face a trip to Hamilton Academical at New Douglas Park on Saturday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 63 games played, Killie have recorded 15 wins, and Hamilton Ac. have come away with 30 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in September 2007, with Hamilton Ac. running out comfortable 2 - 0 winners in a Scottish League Cup match.

Recent respective form guides

Hamilton Academical's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While Accies have scored 5, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Kilmarnock's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the Killie have hit 6 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Hamilton Ac. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 15 games have yielded only 11 points. Kilmarnock's 19 points from 15 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 6th position.
