Team News: Kilmarnock (A)

David Gray has made one change to his starting XI for this afternoon’s William Hill Premiership game against Kilmarnock; 3pm kick-off at Rugby Park.

Deadline day signing Nectar Triantis makes his first start after re-joining on loan from English Championship side Sunderland!

That means that Joe Bursik starts in goal with a back four of Lewis Miller, Marvin Ekpiteta, Warren O’Hora, and Jordan Obita in-front of him.

Triantis will start in the ‘number six’ role with Joe Newell and Hyeokkyo Kwon in front of him in the middle of midfield.

Martin Boyle starts wide right, Rudi Molotnikov wide left, and Mykola Kuharevich leads the line up-front.

Gray has a strong bench to choose from this afternoon, which includes Kieron Bowie who is continuing to build up his full match fitness.

Unfortunately, Elie Youan and Junior Hoilett don’t make the matchday squad as they continue to return from injury, whilst the game has come just too soon for deadline day signing Jack Iredale.
