Recent respective form guides

Kilmarnock's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Killie have scored 8, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Dundee Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the The Terrors, and 5 goals against.

Kilmarnock see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 1 points from their 1 games played so far, Dundee Utd.'s 3 points from 1 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 6th position.
