Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Dundee United and St. Mirren, Kilmarnock will be aiming to keep on climbing the standings when they take on Hearts on Matchday 8. The Killie have been showing signs of improvement of late. As a result, the odds for home win are rapidly dropping. Bearing any fresh injury worries, boss Stuart Kettlewell is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Saints before the international break. Meanwhile, Hearts look unstoppable at the moment, with the team eyeing their fourth consecutive league win.
The Jambos have been impressive at the back of late. With Kilmarnock managing to keep a clean sheet against St. Mirren, under 2.5 goals betting option should be considered. The good news for the visiting side is that summer signing Christian Borchgrevnik is back in training, while the likes of Ageu, Kent, Fulton, and Pollock remain in the recovery room.
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Saturday 18 October 2025 at 17:45.
