Competition: Scottish Premiership

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 1/1 @ 888sport

In a real derby showdown from the Scottish Premiership this weekend, Dundee United will host bitter rivals Dundee FC on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, while Dundee United might have had to settle for a single point when making their return from the international break, they have continued on an eye-catching campaign. In their 32 Premiership matchups so far this season, they have recorded 10 wins, 10 draws and 12 defeats, scoring 29 and conceding 35 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 40, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat fourth in the table and holding a three-point buffer from dropping out of the top-half. As for their recent run of results, last seen playing out a 1-1 draw against Hibernian on the road, Dundee United have lost just a pair of their last seven Premiership matchups. Likewise, it should be highlighted, Saturday’s hosts have seen six of those seven fixtures finish with both teams finding the net.

As for the visitors, while Dundee FC might have also marked their return to action with a single point, they are in the midst of a Premiership nightmare. In their 32 Premiership matchups so far this season, they have recorded just five wins, nine draws and 18 defeats, scoring 27 and conceding 55 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 24, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat rock-bottom of the table and already 14 points adrift of breaking out of the bottom-half. As for their recent run of results, despite being last seen playing out a 2-2 draw against Aberdeen on home soil, Dundee FC have failed to win any of their last eight straight contests. However, it should be noted, with Saturday’s guests seeing three of their last four away fixtures finish with both teams finding the net, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
