We said: Hibernian 2-0 Kilmarnock

Carrying a five-game unbeaten run into Saturday's clash, Hibernian should not struggle to claim all three points against Kilmarnock, who will have to wait for their first away league win of the season. Only one team has scored fewer goals than Killie this term, while only one side has conceded more, so Hibs are expected to inflict a fifth defeat in six league matches on the East Ayrshire club.
