Team News
Kilmarnock
Ross County
- Kilmarnock boss Derek McInnes named two changes to the Killie team that lost by a sole goal to Hibernian at Easter Road as 2024 ended in defeat, before 2025 began with a 2-0 success against St Mirren at Rugby Park on Thursday afternoon.
- Robby McCrorie continued in goal, behind the incoming Robbie Deas, Joe Wright and Lewis Mayo in the Killie backline. Danny Armstrong was sent off against Hibs, so Fraser Murray shifted over to the right as Corrie Ndaba continued on the left.
- Liam Polworth and Brad Lyons were chosen in midfield, as David Watson made way for Bruce Anderson - who bagged a brace against the Buddies. Kyle Vassell was joined by Bobby Wales in the Killie attack.
- Ross County boss Don Cowie made three changes after the Staggies' dramatic 2-2 draw in Dingwall with Hearts, before an impressive 2-1 victory on the road against Aberdeen at Pittodrie to kick off 2025 in emphatic fashion.
- Jordan Amissah remained in goal behind an unchanged back three of Ryan Leak, Kacper Lopata and Akil Wright. Michee Efete switched out to left wing-back, as George Harmon dropped onto the bench for James Brown to start on the right.
- Nohan Kenneh replaced Jack Grieves in midfield to join Connor Randall, Noah Chilvers and Josh Nisbet. Ronan Hale was also sat amongst the substitutes, as Jordan White started as the Staggies' sole striker.
