History of the Kilmarnock v Livingston fixture

Kilmarnock prepare to entertain Livingston at Rugby Park on Saturday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Killie are clearly on top, having won 8 and lost only 3 of the 14 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Rugby Park was just last season, in November 2002, with Kilmarnock running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Kilmarnock's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Killie have scored 6, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Livingston's away form is none too clever either, tasting just one defeat in their last six, and picking up four good wins. The games have constituted a decent return of 11 goals for the Livi Lions, and 5 goals against.

Kilmarnock's 20 points from 16 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 6th position. Livingston see themselves just below half way in the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier, showing a record of 18 points from their 16 games played so far,

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Kilmarnock at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Killie will at least gain a draw. No-score draw

Kilmarnock 6 games since last home draw.
