In their last match they recorded a 0-1 loss against Ross County. Simon Murray scored the first goal for Ross County in the 53rd minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Kilmarnock couldn’t muster any offence and Ross County ran away with the shutout win. Kilmarnock looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 2 of their last 10, while in their last match, Hibernian recorded a 2-0 shutout win against Aberdeen. Adam Le Fondre struck first for Hibernian in the 75th minute on a feed from Joe Newell, then Christian Doidge added another in the 81st minute on a feed from Paul Hanlon In the end, Aberdeen was frustrated by Hibernian’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Hibernian ended the match with the shutout victory. Hibernian looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 9 points in their last 10 matches.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Last season Hibernian won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Hibernian’s most prolific scorer has been Adam Le Fondre. He has netted 3 goals over the last five matches. Bradley Lyons and Marley Watkins are the top scorers for Kilmarnock in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
