Kilmarnock, Recent FormIt's fair to say Kilmarnock will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Hearts, a match that ended in a 1-1 draw. Their share of possession in that meeting was 39%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Hearts, who had 16 shots on goal with 6 on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 8 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 13 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
Kilmarnock will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
On an individual basis, Marley Watkins has scored in each of Kilmarnock's last 3 league games.
Ross County, Recent FormThe 2-1 away defeat to Aberdeen will not have sat easily with the Ross County squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They came away from that fixture with a 50% share of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Aberdeen, who managed 10 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
Manager Don Cowie will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 9 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 10 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 16 games.
Ross County will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form on the road. They've lost their last 5 league games in a row away from home and not recorded a win on their travels in 14 games.
With 4 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Ross County, Simon Murray will be looking to add more goals against Kilmarnock in this match.
The previous match between these two ended without a goal and a share of the spoils, so it wasn't one to remember on that occasion.
On each of the last 2 outings between Kilmarnock and The Staggies in the league, Kilmarnock have not performed well in front of goal and have come up empty-handed in terms of goals. Playing at home, Kilmarnock have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Ross County.
With only Brad Lyons (Knee) and Kyle Magennis (Hamstring) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Derek McInnes will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Don Cowie has a number of injury concerns in his Ross County squad to contend with: Scott Allardice (Knee), Ross Callachan (Cruciate ligament), Will Nightingale (Hamstring) and Dylan Smith (Ankle)
