Match Facts
Kilmarnock have won just one of their last 10 league meetings with St. Johnstone (D2 L7), a 2-1 victory in October 2022.
Since losing three successive league trips to Kilmarnock from March 2018 to April 2019, St. Johnstone have only lost one of their last six (W3 D2).
Kilmarnock have won four of their last five home Scottish Premiership matches, as many as they managed in their previous 11 at The BBSP Stadium Rugby Park.
St. Johnstone have only won their final league game before Christmas in one of the previous seven years (D2 L4), although that victory did come in their final one last year (1-0 v Hibernian).
Kilmarnock’s Derek McInnes has won each of his last four Scottish Premiership home games against St. Johnstone’s Craig Levein since a 0-0 draw with Aberdeen against Hearts in December 2017. Levein’s last top-flight away win over a McInnes side was in September 2009, when his Dundee United side beat McInnes’ St. Johnstone 3-2.
