The 2025-26 Scottish Premiership starts on Friday at Tannadice Park as Dundee United host Rangers on matchday one. This match between the ‘Terrors’ and the ‘Gers’ could provide a chance for the home side to keep the visitors at bay, so our prediction backs the hosts on the double chance market.
Last season saw Dundee finish seventh with 45 points from 38 games, while the Rangers were third with 72 points, ending ten points adrift of the champions, Celtic.
Dundee were beaten 3-2 by Salford in a friendly last week but had already played four League Cup competitive games. They had three wins out of those four (L1), conceding just one goal in the process.
The ‘Terrors’ ended last season with a four-game winless sequence (D2, L2) but have a strong record at home. Dundee are unbeaten in their last ten home matches (W7, D3) and will hope to extend that record to start this season positively.
The Rangers drew 0-0 with West Ham in their final friendly, which was preceded by a 2-1 win over St. Etienne. That is not ideal preparation for the 'Gers,' who ended last season in the Premiership with four defeats in their last five games (W1).
Two of those losses have come in their last three trips (W1), so the Rangers will be wary of their chances.

Our Dundee United vs Rangers Prediction
After finishing third last season, the Rangers brought in Derek McInnes as the manager this summer. There have been a number of new signings as well for the 'Gers,' while Dundee have brought in nine new players. One advantage for the home side is that they have already played four Scottish League Cup games, while Rangers are yet to play any competitive game.
This is a fixture that the Rangers have dominated in the past, and Dundee haven’t beaten them since 2021. They can, however, surprise this time, and our Dundee United vs Rangers prediction is Dundee United or draw.
