Dundee vs Hearts Predictions

• Dundee have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last 16 matches against Hearts.
• The hosts have lost their last three matches.
• Hearts have witnessed fewer than three goals in all of their previous five matches.

Dundee in poor form

Only recently, Dundee had put together a decent run of form as they won three of their previous seven fixtures, but that good form seems to have vanished lately. They now come into this match against Hearts off the back of three losses to Ross County, Rangers and Hibernian. As a result, they’ve fallen down the league table. They can, however, take confidence from the fact that they salvaged a 1-1 draw in their previous meeting with Hearts.

The visitors sit third place in the table, but realistically they have no chance of challenging Rangers or Celtic for the spot at the top of the tree as they’re 15 points adrift of the Gers, so retaining third spot will be their target. Their inconsistent form of late has allowed others to close the gap on them. In their previous six matches, Hearts have lost three and won three, failing to claim back-to-back victories in that period.

Away win on the cards

The hosts aren’t in the greatest of form but they welcome another team who are struggling for consistency. We’re expecting this game to be very tight and cagey but in the end, we think Hearts are likely to pick up an away win and put some distance between themselves and those below them.
