Kilmarnock's equivalent sample reads 10 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses, though a good chunk of those wins came in League Cup fixtures against lower-division sides. Their more recent Premiership form has been rougher, with defeats to Hibernian, Dundee United and Celtic, and low-scoring draws either side of those results.

Kilmarnock's away form in particular has looked short on goals and short on defensive solidity.

Comparative Team Statistics: Rangers vs Kilmarnock

Head-to-Head: Rangers Have Had the Upper Hand

The recent meetings between these two have been one-sided. Rangers won 5-1 in February, 3-0 away in December, and 3-1 at home the previous October, and further back there's a 6-0 and a 4-2 as well.

Kilmarnock have picked up the odd win in this fixture over the years, but almost always when they've had home advantage themselves. In matches played at Rangers' ground, the pattern has strongly favoured the home side.

History leans heavily towards a home win, and often by more than a single goal.

League Table Gap

The current table tells its own story. Rangers sit second with 16 points from seven games, having conceded just four goals all season. Kilmarnock are down in 12th with five points from the same number of matches, and they've already let in 15.

That's a big gap in output at both ends of the pitch, and it lines up with what we've seen in the recent form and head-to-head numbers too.

Players to Watch

Rangers' goal threat has been spread around, with Shankland scoring three in his last five appearances and Naderi adding two in six, plus an assist. Kilmarnock's main creative outlet has been Lowery, who's chipped in two assists across seven games.
