Prediction: 2-1
Kilmarnock
Motherwell and Kilmarnock square off against each other at Fir Park in what is expected to be a close Premiership encounter. The Well aim to build on back-to-back wins over St. Mirren and Motherwell and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-oriented approach. A man to watch in the home team will be Apostolos Stamatelopoulos, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late, while the likes of Callachan, Robinson, and Slattery have been struggling with injuries of late.
The Killie, on the other hand, did well to shock Hearts in their last league match, with Bruce Anderson scoring the winner from the penalty spot. Kilmarnock, though, have been struggling on the travels of late, losing three of their last four away games. Given Motherwell’s signs of improvement in the Premier League, home win should definitely be considered. Adding to Kilmarnock’s woes, defender Robbie Deas is banned for the match.
