Elgin City
LDDLLL 📉
Elgin City won’t want a repeat of their last result here following the 1-3 League Cup loss in their previous game against Peterhead.
The only scorer from Elgin City was Kyle Girvan (24'). Josh Kerr (59'), Niall McGinn (62') and Seb Ross (67') scored for Peterhead.
It’s not been often in recent times where Elgin City have kept a clean sheet. It will be a concern for them that Elgin City have been scored against in 6 of their previous 6 games, letting in 13 goals on the way. In any event, time will tell if that trend will persist in this upcoming match.
Kilmarnock
LWWWWD
In their last game, Kilmarnock drew 0-0 in the League Cup tie with Raith Rovers.
The game was won 4-2 by Kilmarnock on penalties.
A sequence of very capable displays from the Kilmarnock defence has resulted in the number of goals they’ve conceded amounting to 3 from their last 6 clashes in total. Over that same period, their own attack force has managed to score 13.

Team News: Elgin City
There aren’t many selection issues, with just the sole fitness concern for the Elgin City manager Stefan Laird to contend with thanks to an otherwise robust squad. 1 (Elgin City) misses out.
💡
Prediction
We feel that in this game, Kilmarnock will, in all probability, create a good amount of chances and successful shots on target.
In contrast, Elgin City may well struggle finding the net themselves although we reckon that they could well end up hitting back at some stage, too.
We’re therefore expecting to see a fairly comfortable 1-3 victory for Kilmarnock at the end of the 90 minutes.
