With ten games to go, 4th-placed Motherwell will be looking to maintain its Conference League qualification spot if they cannot push for Europa (3rd). The Well now face a relentless Dundee United side in Matchday 29 of the Scottish Premiership, hoping to avoid a stalemate like the last time. See if the Terrors will rain on their parade in this match prediction.

After two red cards sealed a defeat for Motherwell in the Scottish Cup against Aberdeen, they came back strong with a 5-0 thrashing handed to Kilmarnock in their latest game. That win has now only extended what has been a spectacular league campaign so far.

The Well are now unbeaten in their last eight league games, with six victories to show for it. On top of that, Motherwell has also gone 19 Premiership games in a row with only one defeat. They faced Dundee United twice in that run, winning the first on these grounds (2-0) before drawing The Terrors on the road (0-0).

Dundee United may be the heavy underdogs, but with relegation still possible, they'll be determined not to lose again. The Terrors are already in that frame of mind after going four games unbeaten in all competitions.
