History of the Kilmarnock v Inverness Caledonian Thistle fixture

Kilmarnock prepare to entertain Inverness Caledonian Thistle at Rugby Park on Saturday afternoon, hoping to break their duck against the visitors. Out of their two previous meetings, the Killie have drawn one game and lost the other.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Rugby Park was less than a year ago, in April 2005, with Inverness CT inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Killie in a Scottish Premier match.
