St. Johnstone prepare to entertain Kilmarnock at McDiarmid Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 24 of the 54 previous games, with the Saints winning just 15.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at McDiarmid Park was less than a year ago, in December 2009, with Kilmarnock inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Saints in a Scottish Premier match.
