Over 2.5 Match Goals

Reason for tip

17 of Dundee’s last 23 games in all competitions have gone over 2.5 goals and their leaky nature could make this a high-scoring affair, the last two meetings between this pair have had eight goals too. Take over 2.5.

Dundee vs Dundee United Predictions

  • 17 of Dundee’s last 23 games in all competitions have gone over 2.5 goals
  • Dundee United have lost just one of their last nine league games
  • Sam Dalby is the Scottish Premiership’s top scorer with nine

High-scoring affair likely

A matter of yards separate Dundee and Dundee United and there has been little to split the two rivals in their last three head-to-heads.

Those last three meetings have all ended in stalemate and the bookmakers are having a hard time chalking up a favourite when they meet on Thursday.

Despite just being promoted back to the top flight this season, the Tangerines have been impressive and after beating Aberdeen last time out are just three points behind the Dons in third place.

Jim Goodwin’s men have only lost one of their last nine outings, a seven-goal thriller with Motherwell.

Defensive issues plaguing hosts

The Dark Blues have had a tougher campaign, losing nine of their 19 league games to sit firmly in the bottom half of the table.

Keeping teams out has been a real issue for Tony Docherty’s men, they have one of the worst defensive records in the division.

That could be a real issue against these opponents, who have the league’s top scorer in Sam Dalby, who has netted nine times in 16 appearances.

Derby days can be unpredictable affairs but the percentage call is that this will be a high-scoring clash, take over 2.5 goals to land.  

The Tangerines’ last two games have both been wins by a single goal so side with the away team to win 2-1 here.

Sam Dalby has netted nine times in the top flight and could add to that tally.
