Kilmarnock face a trip to Heart of Midlothian at Tynecastle Stadium at lunchtime on Sunday, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Killie will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 58 and win only 21 of the 105 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2010, the Jambo's carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Scottish Premier match.
