Confirmed Starting XI v Kilmarnock; Jenz Keeps His Place

ANGE POSTECOGLOU has named the side that will face Kilmarnock this lunchtime as the Hoops look to reclaim the top spot, albeit on goal difference.

It’s the first time that the Aussie boss has led his Hoops side to Rugby Park, with the Ayrshire team in the Championship last term.

The clash will be live on Sky SportsMain Event and Football, although coverage will cut after the match on Main Event with Nottingham Forrest v West Ham set to kick off at 2 pm.
