After the heartbreak of relegation in the 2020/21 season, Kilmarnock re-enter Scotland’s top flight hoping to have learned from their past mistakes and, therefore, enjoy a more comfortable campaign.
There will still be question marks over their squad, however. Is it good enough to compete in the Scottish Premiership? They’ve certainly done plenty of business to warrant a positive answer to that question, welcoming eight fresh faces, all of which have played in either the Scottish Premiership, or the English Championship.
Team news Kemar Roofe was forced off at Hampden in the semi-final win over Aberdeen and will have a scan to see the extent of the damage. Antonio Colak missed the last four triumph after he was deemed 'touch and go' pre-game. It remains to be seen if he will be back for this one. Ianis Hagi, John Souttar, Tom Lawrence and Filip Helander are still long-term absentees but are working hard to return. The Light Blues may be tempted to rotate bodies after 120 minutes of football at the national stadium on Sunday. Michael Beale will provide a full update in his pre-match press conference.
All the emotions of the weekend will now be put to one side as the Premiership action takes centre stage. The Light Blues are trailing Ange Postecoglou's side by nine points at the league summit as they bid to claw back some ground in the race for the title while Killie hope to ease any relegation fears with a big upset in front of their own fans. They are three points ahead of bottom club Ross County, with a game in hand, and level with Motherwell and Dundee United with every point likely to prove crucial.
