Dundee vs Dundee United Predictions

Dundee to shade the derby at Dens

Dundee look the best bet when they host Dundee United in the Premiership derby at Dens Park on Sunday. The visitors have lost three of their last four away games and could be heading for another defeat here.

Dundee United are seventh, one place above Dundee in the table, but both teams have lost more games than they’ve won this season. United have won seven and lost ten of their 29 games, while Dundee have eight wins and 14 defeats.

Goals have proved easy to come by for Dundee lately. They have scored two goals or more in four Premiership games in a row and found the net in their last four league games, including a 3-3 draw with Hibernian two weeks ago.

Dundee have lost just one of their last six Premiership games and just one of their last six home games in the league.

The hosts are the most profitable home team in the Premiership this season. Backing Dundee to a one-point level stake in all their home games would have shown a profit of 13.73 units.

Dundee United have struggled defensively in recent games, failing to keep a clean sheet in 18 of their last 20 Premiership matches. They are on a run of 12 away days without recording a shutout, conceding an average of 1.86 goals per game from 14 games on the road.

Dundee may be able to edge out Dundee United in a close encounter, with a 2-1 home win the correct-score pick. The last four Dundee games in the Premiership have finished with three or more goals, and they have been single-goal winners in two of their last three matches.
