Dundee Utd. face a trip to Kilmarnock at Rugby Park on Saturday evening, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 50 games played, Terrors have recorded 15 wins, and Kilmarnock have come away with 25 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in November 2002, with Dundee Utd. inflicting a narrow 1 - 2 defeat upon the Killie in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Kilmarnock's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Killie have scored 5, a worringly large 16 have been leaked at the other end.

Dundee Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. A generous 6 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Kilmarnock see themselves just below half way in the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier, showing a record of 20 points from their 17 games played so far, Dundee Utd. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 17 points from 17 matches.

An indifferent set of results for Dundee Utd. on the road, and I believe this game is only going to yield a solitary point for the Terrors. Score draw
