Motherwell travelled to Ayrshire looking to avoid a fifth straight defeat in the William Hill Premiership, with Kilmarnock looking to move level on points with the Steelmen. And inside one minute, it was the hosts who moved closer to their target. A goal from Greg Kiltie could have knocked the stuffing out of Motherwell, but the squad rallied and subsequently levelled through Alex Lowry 20 minutes later. Motherwell continued to create chances, and when Seb Palmer-Houlden converted to make it 2-1 early in the second-half, the visitors looked like they could end their losing streak. But Kilmarnock had other plans and scored their second and third goals thereafter, ensuring Motherwell lost five on the bounce for the first time since February 2025.
