The Dundee derby is on this weekend as Dundee United plays host to Dundee at Tannadice Park in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday. Poor form dominated the two sides’ matches, with the hosts winless in three and the visitors in three on the road.
Recent meetings between these sides have been high-scoring, pointing to our prediction for this one. Dundee United started the season well, winning three of their four League Cup matches.
That momentum is, however, gone, as the team has lost the last two matches, conceding a total of eight and scoring no goals. They will consider this a manageable game, coming from a 4-0 defeat to Celtic, preceded by a defeat to Hearts by the same margin.
Dundee are coming here looking to improve on their recent performances in this fixture. In their last two meetings with United, they are winless, with the latest seeing them fall 3-0 on the road.
Heading into this match, they also lost 3-0 in their League Cup game against Aberdeen. Away from home, that was their third straight winless outing.
With their cup run coming to an end, they can place all their focus on the league. In their latest league game they beat Aberdeen 2-0 and winning in the derby will be a timely boost for the Dark Blues.

Our Dundee United vs Dundee FC Prediction
One of the talking points from this game will be Dundee’s two wins in their last three visits to Tannadice Park. They are, however, struggling in their recent away matches, and that will also be a major issue here. The clearest, though, will be the goals being recorded in these teams’ matches.
Two of Dundee FC’s last four matches had over 2.5 goals. On the other side, Dundee United have failed to score in their latest two outings while conceding eight goals. Our prediction for Dundee United v Dundee is for more than 2.5 goals.
