Prediction: 1-1
Motherwell
Wednesday’s postponed fixture at Rugby Park pits together Kilmarnock and Motherwell, the two teams sitting in the opposite halves of the table. The Killie occupy 10th position in the standings and they must be low on confidence following a 1-0 loss to Ross County. Innes Cameron limped off with injury against the Staggies, with Marley Watkins being ready to replace him in the starting XI.
The Well, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Aberdeen and they managed to get one, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence. Stuart Kettlewell’s troops, though, are not regarded as good travellers, which is probably the main reason why we are going to place our bets on draw. In their last meeting in the Scottish top flight, the two sides played out a 1-1 draw. The likes of Ross Callachan, Lennon Miller, and Zach Robinson miss out with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Team (Kilmarnock):
Founded on January 5, 1869, Kilmarnock are the oldest professional club in Scotland. The Killie welcome their opponents at Rugby Park, the stadium with the artificial turf. The venue, which was opened back in August 1899, can hold up to 17,889 people.
Kilmarnock won their first and only Scotland Premier League trophy in the 1964/65 season despite being level on points with Hearts at the end of the season. Fellow Ayrshire club Ayr United are considered the Killie’s bitterest rivals. The two teams have been facing each other in the Ayrshire derby since September 1910.
Dark blue is the dominant colour of the club’s home kit, while Kilmarnock footballers wear yellow and blues kit when playing on the travels. The Killie recorded their biggest win back in 1896, with the team beating Saltcoats Victoria 13-2 in the second round of the Scottish Qualifying Cup. The club suffered their biggest defeat in August 1938 as they were hammered by Celtic 9-1 in the Scottish League Division.
