Kilmarnock form and stats
Only two Premiership home games for Kilmarnock so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat.
The Kilmarnock crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Ross County here at BBSP Stadium Rugby Park. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Armstrong for missing a penalty kick versus Ross County in the 86th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome. Midfielder Armstrong was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.63 (out of ten) in that game. Armstrong hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.
Prior to that, an away loss at Motherwell.This is expected to be a close game, with Kilmarnock perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Kilmarnock as a small favourite), we find 8 games. Kilmarnock has won 3 of these, drawn 3 and lost 2.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Kilmarnock at home in the league. 1 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Hibernian form and stats
Things could have gone better for Hibernian in their Premiership away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.
Hibernian play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 2-0 victory visiting Aberdeen (placed 11th). That victory felt nice as this team had gone three league matches without winning. Attacker Boyle got a player rating of 8.4 in the game.

A loss, in the Europa Conference League away at Aston Villa, before that. As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 6 similar matches played by Hibernian in our archives, and the results are: 2 wins for Hibernian, 1 draw and 3 defeats.
