Best Tip: Both teams to score

Dundee should have reason to feel optimistic ahead of this fixture and, funnily enough, so might Dundee Utd. The bookies don't think there's much between them and neither do we – there's no clear victor in this clash. So we look to the both teams to score market, where the signs are pointing in one direction. The form statistics, past head-to-head (H2H) records and bookmakers odds below are all pointing towards both sides scoring, and we think that's the tip to go with here.
