Kilmarnock vs Aberdeen Prediction: There is no clear winner in this one

Kilmarnock, who won their second game of the season the previous weekend, will play Aberdeen on Sunday with the goal of building some momentum after winning their second game of the season the previous weekend. The away team hasn't won any of their last three games across all competitions, but they still have a chance to pass their opponents and take over first place in the Scottish Premiership if they can grab three points from this encounter.

Kilmarnock had a successful return from the international break the previous weekend, as they were able to win their second victory of the season by claiming a victory over Livingston. The Lions' Sean Kelly scored an equalizer with a penalty kick in the 35th minute, but a brace from Kyle Vassell and a goal from Daniel Armstrong in the 16th minute were enough to earn a 3-1 victory for the Sharks. Killie moved up to fifth place in the league as a result of the three points they earned, and if they were to win their next game, they would have a chance to crack the top four if Hearts were to lose this weekend. Kilmarnock, on the other hand, are only three points above the relegation zone at the moment, which demonstrates how close the competition is in the Scottish Premiership and how dramatically things may change with just one result right now. However, Derek McInnes will want his squad to keep up their impressive play at Rugby Park, where they have won both of their victories so far.

The away team comes into this game on the heels of a heartbreaking loss to PAOK in the Europa Conference League during the previous week. That game included a total of five goals scored by both teams. The team captained by Barry Robson squandered away a two-goal lead in the game's closing 20 minutes, during which they allowed three goals to be scored against them, including a penalty kick in the 96th minute that resulted in a loss of 3-2. The Dons will want to put their setback in the final minute of the game behind them as quickly as possible, especially considering that they have not competed in a league game since before the international break because their match against Dundee was scheduled to take place over the weekend but was postponed. Due to the fact that Aberdeen drew their last two matches in the Scottish Premiership, they have dropped to ninth place in the division and are now only two points above the zone, indicating that they are safe from relegation. The Dons have only managed to win once away from home so far this season, which is an obvious area in which they need to improve. However, because a win would ensure that they would move ahead of Kilmarnock in the standings, there is still a lot to play for.

In what is likely going to be a very close game, Aberdeen will enter it having had a shorter amount of rest than their opponents, and this could end up being the factor that leads to their defeat. Kilmarnock has performed well throughout this season when playing at their own stadium, and it is a factor that should assist them in gaining another three points.
