St Johnstone to grab away win
St Johnstone may not be enjoying the best form right now, but they tend to play well against Dundee. Callum Davidson’s men have beaten Dundee United in all of their last seven meetings. Dundee have had a lot of difficulty scoring against St Johnstone; they’ve failed to score in six of those seven games, managing just one goal. It’s worth pointing out that Dundee’s manager James McPake has gone head to head with Callum Davidson three times in his managerial career, and he’s lost all three encounters. For these reasons, we believe St Johnstone will be the victors.
Visitors to open the scoring
St Johnstone have not just beaten Dundee in all of their last seven meetings, they’ve also scored first in those seven meetings; this makes sense considering Dundee have scored just one goal in those seven encounters. Dundee have a tendency to start slow, they’ve conceded the first goal in seven of their last 10 games; St Johnstone on the other hand, have scored the first goal in three of their last five games. With all this in mind, we believe that the visitors will draw first blood.
Both sides will bag
Finally, we’ll take a look at the BTTS market. We mentioned that St Johnstone have conceded just once in their last seven meetings with Dundee; but it’s going to be quite difficult for them to keep a clean sheet today. This is because St Johnstone have not been able to keep the goals out recently; they’ve conceded in seven of their last nine games. Dundee have scored in five of their last six games, they’ve scored five goals in their last two games alone. Dundee should be able to score, and so should St Johnstone.

Dundee vs St Johnstone: Meet the teams
Dundee
Dundee FC have had more wins in their last three games than they did in their first 11 games combined; they are coming off a comfortable 3:0 win against Motherwell, and will hope to string up consecutive wins for the first time this season. Will Paul McMullan be able to do the job?
St Johnstone
St Johnstone have had a poor run of form over the past couple of months; they have won just once in their last seven games across all competitions. Callum Davidson’s men have no wins in their last three games, and they’ll hope to end their poor run. Stevie May will be the man to watch out for.
