FootyMAD's Kilmarnock match preview

History of the Kilmarnock v Celtic fixture

Celtic face a trip to Kilmarnock at Rugby Park on Wednesday evening, looking to further improve upon a decent past record there. So far, the The Bhoys have winning an impressive 57 games, and losing 20.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2009, with Celtic inflicting a narrow 1 - 2 defeat upon the Killie in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Kilmarnock's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Killie have scored 6, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

Celtic's away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. The The Bhoys's have scored 11 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 12.

Kilmarnock are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 14 points from 17 matches. Celtic's total of 36 points from their 17 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier.
