An exciting game awaits us on Friday night as Inversess and Kilmarnock go head to head in the quarter finals of the Scottish Cup.
The hosts are sixth in the Championship, while Kilmarnock are eleventh in the Premiership.
The hosts go into this match full of confidence after last weekend's 2-1 win over Ayr, which ended their run of three winless games. Inverness' main problem in recent games has been their inability to defend properly. Billy Dodds' side have gone only two of their last eight games in all competitions without conceding a goal.
Meanwhile, Kilmarnock have managed just one win in their last five games across competitions. When it comes to away games, the visitors haven't done enough to be considered favorites despite their first division affiliation, as they have won just one of their last fifteen games away from home.
Inverness vs Kilmarnock betting tips: Under 2.5 goals
Although the hosts have been struggling defensively lately, they will be encouraged by the fact that they only two clean sheets they kept in their last eight games were in this competition.
Also, six of the last eight meetings between these two teams ended with two goals or less, so it will probably be a close game.
