Attempting to cement their place in the annals of Scottish football since their formation in 1869, Kilmarnock currently ply their trade at The BBSP Stadium Rugby Park, a venerable fortress steeped in Scottish spirit and tradition. The composition of Kilmarnock's persistent squad veers on the side of youth, with the average age of its 36-strong playing force slated at 25 years.
According to Transfermarkt, the cumulative market value of Kilmarnock's scrappy lineup clocks in at roughly around £8m, a figure that could hardly be labelled extortionate in today's football economy.
So far in the season, Kilmarnock have pitted their mettle in three competitions. They've tentatively marked their stake in the Scottish Premiership, languishing at somewhat of a lowly 11th place. Their venture in the League Cup has seen them displaying notable grit, having battled their way into the quarter-finals. The Scottish Cup, however, proved to be a more formidable challenge, as they bowed out in the fourth round.
