Kilmarnock defender Scott Boyd believes the Rugby Park side can go on and lift the Scottish Cup this season – if they can get past Rangers and into the quarter-finals.

Boyd thinks there’s “no reason” Killie can’t progress – and hopes to go as far as possible this season.
“Winning a cup is definitely something we’d like to achieve,” he said. “We’ve obviously been doing really well under the gaffer in the league and it would be great if we could have a good cup run as well,” Boyd told The Herald.

“We know how hard it’ll be against Rangers because they’re a very good side. But there’s no reason why we can’t be positive and look to progress into the next round.
“A good cup run is probably the only thing we haven’t done yet under the gaffer, so it’s a good time to change that.”

Boyd is out of contract at the end of the campaign and the veteran defender will be hoping he can earn a new deal with Steve Clarke’s side.
Before joining Killie, Boyd made almost 300 appearances for Ross County and has experienced a Hampden final before – winning the League Cup final in 2016.
