Angelo Alessio has a near fully-fit squad to choose from ahead of his first Ladbrokes Premiership match in charge of Kilmarnock.
Rangers are the visitors to Rugby Park for the Italian’s first taste of league action.
And the only absentee is youngster Adam Frizzell as he continues his recovery from a broken foot.
Rangers boss Steven Gerrard hopes Steven Davis will shake off a hamstring strain.
However, left-back Jon Flanagan and new defender Filip Helander are still building up fitness so will not feature.
Jamie Murphy (groin) and Graham Dorrans (calf) also have niggles ruling them out of contention.
Provisional Kilmarnock squad: MacDonald, O’Donnell, Taylor, Broadfoot, Findlay, Power, McKenzie, Dicker, Wilson, Kiltie, MacKay, El Makrini, Brophy, Waters, Millen, Thomas, Burke, Cameron, Branescu.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
