Recent respective form guides
Kilmarnock's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Killie have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Hibernian's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. The The Hibees's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 8.
Kilmarnock see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 27 points from their 24 games played so far, Hibernian's 31 points from 24 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 6th position.
