Kilmarnock
- Hearts boss Neil Critchley named three changes after the Jambos made it two wins from as many Europa Conference League matches with a win against Cypriot side Omonia Nicosia, before a 1-1 draw in the Edinburgh derby on Sunday.
- Craig Gordon continued in goal behind Kye Rowles and Frankie Kent at centre-back. Daniel Oyegoke took Adam Forrester's place at right-back as James Penrice replaced Stephen Kingsley at left-back for the derby against Hibs at Easter Road.
- Cammy Devlin partnered Malachi Boateng in the middle of the park. Yan Dhanda came in to join Blair Spittal in support of strike duo Kenneth Vargas and Lawrence Shankland at the weekend.
- Kilmarnock boss Derek McInnes named an unchanged Killie eleven after a sole goal was enough to nick all three points against Rangers, before they blew a lead up in the Highlands as Ross County came from behind to beat ten-men Killie 2-1.
- Robby McCrorie continued in goal behind a back four of Corrie Ndaba, Stuart Findlay, Robbie Deas and Lewis Mayo. Brad Lyons and Liam Donnelly, who was sent off on Saturday in Dingwall, remained in the middle of the park.
- Matty Kennedy and Danny Armstrong provided the width on the flanks. Kyle Vassell and Marley Watkins, who netted the late winner against Rangers, lead the line at the weekend too.
