Liam Boyce struck early for Ross County on Saturday as they secured a 1-0 victory to keep Partick Thistle waiting for their first win of the Scottish Premiership season.
Thistle came into the game off the back of three consecutive defeats and fell behind again as Boyce headed home Jamie Reckford's deep cross 18 minutes in.
With Partick having registered just twice in the league all season, a comeback never really seemed on the cards and the visitors again struggled in front of goal, slipping further adrift at the foot of the table thanks to Dundee United's draw against Inverness Caledonian Thistle.
David Wotherspoon followed up on a loose ball to open the scoring 16 minutes in before Josh Magennis' looping header levelled matters.
The winner came courtesy of a deep Rory McKenzie cross that deflected off Brian Easton and left goalkeeper Ian Mannus fooled - Killie making it back-to-back wins while Dougie Imrie's stooping header sealed a 1-0 win over Hamilton Academicals against Motherwell.
