Kilmarnock got back to winning ways against Motherwell making it three wins in their last three home games.
The Steelmen came to town hoping to improve on a run of just one point out of the last 18 available - but that's now one from 21.
Super-sub Innes Cameron was the man of the moment as he bagged the second-half winner which fired Killie into fourth-place once again.
Dan Armstrong went close in the ninth minute after he latched on to a Matty Kennedy pass before fizzing a low effort just past Liam Kelly's post.
Killie were dealt a blow after 13 minutes when captain Kyle Vassell hobbled off injured, he was replaced by Cameron.
It took Killie just four minutes of the second half to take the lead when David Watson laid off Cameron who happily smashed it into the roof of the net.
Marley Watkins had a great chance in the 53rd minute as he worked towards goal, but his shot just flew wide and evaded the incoming Matty Kennedy on the line.
Watson almost set up Cameron again on the hour mark when he whipped a cross on to his head, but the resulting effort went straight at Kelly.
Robbie Deas had a good chance at the edge of the area when he fired towards goal, but Kelly was equal to the effort.
A cross was whipped into Motherwell's box in stoppage time as Conor Wilkinson jumped high to header it, but Will Dennis collected the cross well to halt 'Well's attack.
