History of the Dundee United v Kilmarnock fixture

Dundee Utd. prepare to entertain Kilmarnock at Tannadice Park on Saturday afternoon, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. Of the 60 games played, The Terrors have recorded 22 wins, and Kilmarnock have come away with 17 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Tannadice Park was less than a year ago, in April 2009, when they played out a goalless draw in a Scottish Premier match.
