Kilmarnock prepares for Celtic match on new hybrid pitch

Kilmarnock's Greg Kiltie expressed optimism about the team's new grass-hybrid pitch, debuting this Sunday against Celtic. The previous artificial surface has been replaced, and Kiltie aims to dispel the notion that the old pitch provided an undue advantage. He emphasized the need to improve following last week's disappointing 4-3 loss to St Johnstone, underscoring the importance of intensity. Kilmarnock faced challenges against Celtic last season, losing in late dramatics during both encounters.
