21-year-old Kris Boyd returned from injury on Saturday and he could be joined up front at Tannadice by Steven Naismith, aged 18. Naismith has featured as substitute on a few occasions this season, but a hat-trick in the reserves 6-2 victory against Hibs on Tuesday night could push him ahead of Gary Wales and Craig Dargo for Saturday's clash against Dundee United.
These "Blues Brothers" have enjoyed similarly free-scoring educations through the Killie ranks, while Boyd will be looking to repeat his five goal feat against United earlier this season.
