History of the Aberdeen v Kilmarnock fixture

Aberdeen prepare to entertain Kilmarnock at Pittodrie Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Dons are clearly on top, having won 51 and lost only 19 of the 88 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Pittodrie Stadium was less than a year ago, in April 2007, with Aberdeen running out comfortable 3-0 winners in a Scottish Premier match.
