The weekend SPFL action gets under way on Friday night when Kilmarnock play Ladbrokes Premiership leaders Celtic.

The Rugby Park clash is live on BT Sport, kick-off 7.45pm, and Brendan Rodgers’ side head for Ayrshire with 10 wins and a draw from their 11 Premiership fixtures.

Lee Clark’s team are outside the top six only on goal difference but are just three points above bottom club Ross County in a tightly-packed division.

Celtic beat Inverness Caley Thistle 3-0 at Parkhead in their last outing before the international break while Killie drew 0-0 with Hamilton Accies at Rugby Park.

Kilmarnock striker Souleymane Coulibaly was the last player to score against the reigning champions in a domestic match – he broke the deadlock with a stunning long-range effort in September but Celtic went on to win 6-1.
