Dundee Utd have lost four of their six Premiership away matches, dating back to last season. They travel to face Motherwell in their next fixture on Wednesday. Motherwell have won each of their last five home matches against Dundee Utd, leading us to back the hosts in our prediction.

Motherwell settled for a draw in a six-goal thriller away to St Mirren last weekend. The Well raced into a two-goal lead in the first half but squandered their advantage and fell behind before Jardell Kanga struck late to rescue a point. 

Last week's result ensured the North Lanarkshire club maintained their unbeaten start to the Premiership this season. They have won five of their last seven Premiership matches against Dundee Utd (D1, L1).

Emmanuel Agyei, Zachary Sapsford, Will Ferry, and Jesse Randall all found the net as Dundee Utd roasted struggling Kilmarnock 4–0 at the weekend. However, that victory came off the back of consecutive losses in their opening two league matches.

The Terrors have lost four of their last six Premiership away matches, dating back to last season. They have also suffered defeat in their four previous league visits to Motherwell.

Our Motherwell vs Dundee United Prediction

Dundee Utd have struggled for results on the road in the Scottish Premiership since last season and are set for an even sterner challenge on Wednesday against a Motherwell side that is yet to taste defeat this season. It's even harder to fancy their chances of picking up a result here, with all four of their previous Premiership visits to Motherwell ending in defeat. 

Moreover, the visitors have suffered defeat in two of their three Premiership matches this season. Our Motherwell vs Dundee Utd prediction : Motherwell wins.
