History of the Inverness Caledonian Thistle v Kilmarnock fixture

Inverness CT prepare to entertain Kilmarnock at Tulloch Caledonian Stadium on Saturday afternoon, hoping to break their duck against the visitors. In the past, this fixture has usually spelled defeat for the Caley Thistle.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Tulloch Caledonian Stadium was just last season, in December 2006, with Kilmarnock inflicting a narrow 3-4 defeat upon the Caley Thistle in a Scottish Premier match.
