Our prediction for this match: Kilmarnock 2 - 1 Motherwell
Kilmarnock vs Motherwell Preview
Rugby Park will host Saturday's Premiership game between Kilmarnock and Motherwell, with the hosts desperate to climb away from the bottom of the table. Killie suffered a 3-1 defeat to Rangers last time out, extending their difficult run and underlining the defensive issues that have plagued their campaign. Captain Greg Kiltie is injured, meaning Djenairo Daniels could be handed an opportunity to make an impact. Kilmarnock have conceded 2.33 goals per home game in the supplied statistics, leaving little room for further defensive lapses.
Motherwell travel to Ayrshire in equally poor spirits after suffering a 2-0 loss to Celtic, their fourth consecutive defeat. The visitors have no fresh injury concerns, although Dylan Williams, Johnny Koutroumbis, Paul McGinn and Oscar Priestman remain sidelined. Their away form offers little encouragement, with the Steelmen still searching for their first win on the road in the supplied sample. The Well have also conceded 2.20 goals per away game, suggesting Kilmarnock should find opportunities despite their own struggles.
Kilmarnock's home advantage could prove decisive against a Motherwell team struggling away from home. Therefore, we believe that there is big value in betting on Kilmarnock to Win, alongside Over 2.5 goals and Both Teams to Score)
