Another appealing match in the Premiership. Hibernian is in the 8th spot after participating in five games. They receive Kilmarnock who are placed 9th after five matches.
- Hibernian have not yet lost a game at home.
- Kilmarnock have the most points from losing position (4) in Premiership
It should be mentioned that Kilmarnock play their home matches on artifical turf, so they have to adjust for this one as it's played on grass. Does it matter? Recent statistics for Kilmarnock on grass are 9 victories, 4 draws and 18 defeats from 31 games. In these matches they have a goal statistics scored/conceded: 25-37. You can compare this with overall results below.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the League Cup. That game, against Hearts, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Kilmarnock.
Hibernian form and stats

Kilmarnock form and stats
It's not happening yet for Kilmarnock on their Premiership travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different?
Two trips in a row for Kilmarnock, whose manager McInnes could celebrate last time after the League Cup win against Hearts. Those three points felt nice as this team had gone four league games without winning.
Before that, Kilmarnock secured a home win against Motherwell with the score 2-1.0 goals so far away for Kilmarnock, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.
