Match preview

Our model makes Motherwell slight favourites, giving them a 45% chance of winning against 25% for the draw.

Our fair price for "Away win" is 2.23 — the pick only has value at a bookmaker price above that.

We expect 2.8 goals in total (1.25 for Kilmarnock, 1.57 for Motherwell), which points to Over 2.5 as a secondary angle.

Kilmarnock sit 11th on 9 points; Motherwell are 9th on 12.

Check team news before kick-off — a late change to either line-up moves the numbers.
