A Scottish Premiership match at Fir Park on Saturday afternoon will see Motherwell taking on Kilmarnock. The Steelmen sit one spot behind Killie in 6th and 5th, respectively in the early going. Will little separate them on the pitch as well? Read our prediction to find out.
Three games into the Scottish Premiership season have seen these two sides pick up a point in each outing. Motherwell have drawn Rangers at home and taken points from St Mirren and Hearts on the road.
The most recent of those saw them run up a 3-0 lead at Tynecastle before being clawed back, a performance which Motherwell will quickly need to erase from their memory ahead of this contest.
Kilmarnock has home draws with Livingston and Dundee, plus a 2-2 effort away at Hibernian. In all competitions this season, Killie have four wins and four draws, yet to taste defeat, showing determination to come from 0-2 down in that Hibs game to claim a point.
Fir Park has not been a happy hunting ground for them in recent years, as they have won on just one of their last 10 visits, though they have picked up a point in three of their last five.

Our Motherwell vs Kilmarnock Prediction
Fans of these two sides have witnessed stalemates in all of their games, and that might be the way that things are going to go again here. Motherwell showed that they couldn't hold onto a 3-0 lead at Hearts, while Kilmarnock have already shown this season that they can come from behind to pick up a result.
In the last five times that these teams have clashed here, there have been three draws, and that looks like the safest option once more. Our Motherwell vs Kilmarnock prediction is a draw.
