READY FOR RUGBY PARK

After the successful Scottish Cup win at Motherwell last Saturday, Manager Alex Smith is looking for a League win when United travel to Kilmarnock on Saturday.

Following two narrow defeats against Killie this season, he feels the time is right for the tables to be turned. "Our games against them have both ended 1-0 against us, but we had the chances to take the points and the time is right for us to beat them. If we do, we will have done ourselves a lot of good, and if we show the form we did at Motherwell, we will have a great chance."

Hasney Aljofree has already been ruled out through injury and he could be joined on the sidelines by Steven Thompson. The big striker was sent home on Friday suffering from flu-like symptoms.
