Kilmarnock vs Motherwell Prediction & Betting Tips - Scottish Premiership
by Sridhar in Scottish Premiership Predictions
The rescheduled matchday 11 fixture of the Scottish Premiership gives a chance for Motherwell to put pressure on the top four when they meet Kilmarnock. This match at Rugby Park between the 10th-placed Killie and the 5th-placed Steelmen on Wednesday comes with our prediction of under 2.5 goals.
Kilmarnock starts this match with 24 points from 22 matches and only one above the bottom two positions, while Motherwell has 30 points from 21 matches and four behind the top four. The hosts are coming off a 1-0 defeat to Ross County at this venue on Sunday, with the defining goal coming in the 86th minute. That was Kilmarnock’s second defeat in their last three matches, but an unbeaten four-game run prior to that suggests they can’t be taken lightly.
Especially at home, Kilmarnock has three wins from their last four home league games and will hope to revive that winning streak. Motherwell had a 2-0 win over Aberdeen on Sunday at home, halting their four-game winless run prior to that victory.
The Steelmen are closer to the top-four spots and will hope this win can spark their revival. The visitors will, however, have to overcome their poor away record, having lost four of their last five league trips.

Our Kilmarnock vs Motherwell Prediction
Motherwell may be close to the top-four spots, but their recent away record is below par. That gives hope to Kilmarnock to get back to winning form at home, as their three-match winning streak at Rugby Park ended last Sunday. Kilmarnock won this fixture last year by a 1-0 scoreline and won’t mind a repeat score this time out. Incidentally, these two teams have been among the lowest scorers in this league campaign, which could continue here. That’s why our prediction for Kilmarnock v Motherwell is under 2.5.
