On the 3rd of September, Hibernian and Kilmarnock will play a match in Edinburgh in a meeting of these two evenly matched Premiership teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. Hibernian sits at 8th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 0-1 loss against St. Mirren. Baccus scored the first goal for St. Mirren in the 6th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Hibernian was frustrated by St. Mirren’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. St. Mirren ended the match with the shutout victory. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches, while kilmarnock sits at 9th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 2-1 win against Motherwell. Kevin van Veen scored the first goal for Motherwell in the 14th minute, but Armstrong got the equalizer for Kilmarnock in the 71st minute But fortunately they were able to complete the comaback in the 76th minute on a goal by Ash Taylor. Kilmarnock looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 3 of their last 10.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out.
Kilmarnock’s most prolific scorer has been Ash Taylor. The English attacker has netted two goals over the last 5 matches. Both Josh Campbell and Martin Boyle have been the hottest scorers for Hibernian in the last five each having scored 2 goals each.
