Kilmarnock face a trip to Hibernian at Easter Road Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Killie will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 51 and win only 18 of the 92 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in May 2007, with Kilmarnock inflicting a narrow 0 - 1 defeat upon the The Hibees in a Scottish Premier match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
This promises to be an excellent test for the in-form Killie, but one which I believe will end in stalemate. Score draw
