Kilmarnock are unbeaten in their last 11 matches against Dundee Utd across all competitions since 2022. They welcome the Terrors to Rugby Park in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday. Moreover, the Pride of Ayrshire have won four of their six league matches at Rugby Park, dating back to last season, including three of their last four meetings with Dundee Utd at the venue. Hence, our prediction backs them to come out on top.

Kilmarnock ended their three-match losing run with an entertaining 3–2 League Cup victory over Ayr in the Ayrshire derby last time out. They have lost both of their opening Premiership matches this season, including a 5–1 defeat to defending champions Celtic last time out. 

Nevertheless, Neil McCann’s side have been difficult to beat at home. They have avoided defeat in five of their last six Premiership home matches (W4, D1) dating back to last season and have won three of their last four home meetings with Dundee Utd.

Interestingly, Dundee Utd have also lost their opening two Premiership matches this season. Their most recent was a 2–0 home defeat to Dundee FC in the Tayside derby last weekend. 

The Terrors are winless in their last 11 matches against Kilmarnock across all competitions. They have also failed to win their last five Premiership away matches dating back to last season, losing four.
