Aberdeen face a trip to Kilmarnock at Rugby Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Dons will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2007, with Aberdeen inflicting a narrow 1 - 2 defeat upon the Killie in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides
Kilmarnock's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Killie have scored 7, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.
Aberdeen's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Dons have hit 7 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Kilmarnock's 7 points from 4 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 6th position. Aberdeen see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 2 points from their 4 games played so far,
