DundeeKilmarnock
Killy are in a rich vein of form and are unbeaten in their last 7 matches in all competitions, a run of form that has propelled them to 7th in the division. Steve Clarke has transformed his side since his arrival at the end of 2017 and with 29 points from 23 games this season and a cup quarter final to look forward to – the outlook for Kilmarnock is bright currently. Kris Boyd has rolled back the years at Rugby Park, bagging 10 goals already in a prolific campaign for the Scotland man.
Dundee

Neil McCann has brought in former England defender Steven Caulker this week as he looks to improve upon their points tally of 25 from 25 games. A-Jay Leitch-Smith has scored 6 goals for the Dee this season, a moderate tally for a man of his abilities.
