Over their past six clashes, a grand total of 20 goals have gone in for both teams combined (at an average of 3.33 goals per game) with 15 of them accredited to Kilmarnock. Putting that to one side, it remains to be seen if the trend might be sustained here in this game.

The stats don’t lie, and Raith Rovers have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 9 goals overall. At the back, Raith Rovers have clearly had some problems.
Looking at their most recent head-to-head meetings dating back to 02/10/2021 shows that Kilmarnock have won 1 of these and Raith Rovers 3, with the tally of draws being 2.
An aggregate of 17 goals were scored between them in this period, with 8 from Killie and 9 being from The Rovers. That is an average goals per game value of 2.83.
Thanks to a mainly available group of players, there’s just the lone fitness worry for the Raith Rovers boss Dougie Imrie to contend with. 1 (Raith Rovers) won’t be playing here.
We feel that Kilmarnock look likely to score a couple of goals against Raith Rovers, who will not find it easy scoring.
Accordingly, we see a comfortable 2-0 margin for Kilmarnock when the full-time whistle blows.
Looking at the bookies’ prices in the win-draw-win market, a win for Kilmarnock can be had for 1.91, a wager on the game finishing all-square is 3.4 & taking a punt on the winning team to be Raith Rovers can be had at 3.4. Those are the best of the returns available at this very moment.
