Kilmarnock seeks to extend unbeaten run during upcoming break
Summary

Kilmarnock manager Neil McCann expressed concerns that the international break is poorly timed for his team, which is currently on a three-match unbeaten streak, having only conceded one goal during that span. Following a challenging start to the season with four consecutive losses, the team has shown signs of improvement. However, they are facing uncertainty regarding the severity of a knee injury to first-choice goalkeeper Max Stryjek, who was substituted in a recent match against Hearts. McCann acknowledged his disappointment in not securing a win but praised the team's resilience and effort in recent matches.
