Hibernian vs Kilmarnock Prediction & Tips | Premiership | FootballTips.app

Hibernian have played out consecutive goalless draws in the Scottish Premiership; meanwhile, Kilmarnock have clinched back-to-back league victories to aid their top-tier survival quest.

Hibs may be unbeaten in five Scottish Premiership games since losing the Edinburgh derby to Hearts at Tynecastle (W2 D3), but three draws that include two consecutive goalless stalemates don't highlight Hibernian's full capability. Having beaten Killie in Ayrshire back in January, the Hibees were held in a 2-2 draw against Kilmarnock in their last Easter Road meeting in August.

Kilmarnock eased their fears of automatic relegation from the Scottish Premiership this season, by beating basement boys Livingston at Rugby Park prior to the international break as Killie extended their recent unbeaten run to seven games against Livi (W4 D3). A first league victory over Hibs since November 2022 could see them potentially leapfrog St Mirren in tenth place.

Killie have shown that they are willing to fight for their place in the Scottish Premiership next season, and so it may not be as routine for Hibs at home as they might have hoped.
