Daniel MacKay admits it will be strange facing the side he played with since he was just seven.The pacey winger left Inverness in the summer to join Hibs, and he's now on loan to title rivals Kilmarnock.The winner of the match has a chance of going to within one point of league leaders Arbroath, with the loser at risk of being seven off the pace depending on the result at Gayfield against Partick Thistle.And MacKay says there will be no loyalties in favour of the Highland side despite having plenty of friends there.He said: "Am I a secret weapon?

You could say so but I’ve been away for six months and I don’t the ins and outs."Hopefully the stuff I do know from the team last season I can use as an advantage to help the coaching staff with anything they need."It will be a weird experience, I was at Inverness my whole life until the summer but it’s a challenge I’m looking forward to and hopefully we can come out with a result.The Ayrshire Live app is available to download now.Get all the local news in your area – plus features, football news and the latest on the coronavirus crisis – at your fingertips 24/7.The free download features the latest breaking news and exclusive stories while you can customise your page with the sections that matter to you.The Ayrshire Live app is available to download now on iOS and Android."I was in the youth team from the age of seven and I was 19 when I left so it was a long time.
