Kilmarnock's recent 5-1 defeat to St Mirren has intensified worries about their place in the Scottish Premiership as the team slips from last season's fourth place to 10th. Currently just a point above relegation, concerns around consistency arise, particularly after last year’s successful campaign where their defensive strength and home advantage were key. This season has seen a stark drop in performance, with a significant increase in goals conceded and a diminished home record, indicating underlying issues that could threaten their standing in the league as the season concludes.
Kilmarnock's decline from fourth place to near relegation reflects a broader trend in Scottish football, where teams struggle to maintain consistency after European qualification.
This season, Kilmarnock's defense has faltered significantly, conceding nine more goals and keeping only six clean sheets compared to last year's impressive record.
Despite a strong home record last season, Kilmarnock's current performance at Rugby Park has sharply declined, winning only six out of fifteen home games.
Manager Derek McInnes faces challenges in turning around a squad that once thrived on resilience and physicality but now shows signs of fatigue and inconsistency.
