Kilmarnock secured a straightforward 2-0 win over Livingston at Rugby Park, a result that strengthens their position in the top six of the Scottish Premiership. Two second-half goals were enough to see off a stubborn Livingston side, with Killie showing their quality when it mattered most. After a first half of few clear chances, Kilmarnock broke the deadlock just after the hour mark with a low driven shot from the edge of the area. They sealed the points with ten minutes remaining, capitalizing on a defensive mistake to slot home their second. Livingston offered little threat in attack, failing to register a shot on target throughout the ninety minutes. This victory is crucial for Kilmarnock's ambitions of securing a European place, while Livingston remain deep in a relegation battle. The Kilmarnock manager highlighted his team's patience, and the Livingston boss was critical of his side's lack of attacking intent.
