Kilmarnock vs Rangers Predictions

• Kilmarnock have played in four League Cup games this season, this is Rangers’ opener
• Killie have scored in their last two meetings with Rangers and have lost the last six.
• Rangers conceded in five of their final six away games last term.

Rangers head to Killie in Premiership opener

Rangers begin their Premiership campaign on Saturday as they make the trip to Kilmarnock for the late kick off,

This will be the Ibrox giants’ first outing of the new season but Killie have had a chance to get up to speed as they have already played four League Cup games (W3, D1).

Kilmarnock can strike in defeat

Rangers have won each of the last six meetings between these two sides and should be expected to claim the three points, but the hosts should be able to at least grab a consolation effort.

Kilmarnock have scored in their last two games against Rangers and have hit nine goals across their four League Cup outings of the new season. The Glasgow club also struggled for clean sheets on their travels at the end of last term as they managed just one in their last six trips – and they conceded in all four of their pre-season outings.

Cantwell can strike for visitors

A 3-1 win for Rangers seems a reasonable correct score prediction as they have scored exactly three goals in their last two games against these opponents, and hit eight goals across their last three games at the end of the previous campaign.

Todd Cantwell ended last season with a run of four goals in five games and can get his season up and running with an opening day strike, while James Tavernier is another option as he struck three times in pre-season and will be on spot kick duties for the visitors.
