Calling it level
St Johnstone have had the worst run of form in the Premiership this season; they’ve lost 10 in a row, in all competitions, and have no wins in their last 11 games. It gets worse however, as St Johnstone met a League Two side in the Scottish Cup last weekend, and still lost. Although Dundee FC won their cup game last weekend, they defeated a League One team; The Dees have lost all of their last six games. It’s difficult to choose between these sides, considering how poorly they’ve been playing. One thing we know for sure is, both teams don’t win games; and because of that, we believe they’ll both continue their respective winless streaks in the Premiership.
Both sides will score
These are the last two teams on the Premiership table. Granted, these teams have struggled to score goals; but it’s fair to point out that both teams have found it difficult to keep clean sheets too. St Johnstone have allowed at least one goal in all of their last 10 games across all competitions. Just like St Johnstone, Dundee have not been able to keep the goals out; they’ve conceded in all of their last six league games. Considering how consistently both teams have allowed goals, we believe that both teams will concede here.
A low scoring game
We’ve mentioned that both teams have not scored a lot of goals this season; only Dundee United and St Johnstone have scored fewer goals than Dundee FC this season. St Johnstone have scored just two goals in their last eight games; as a result, six of those eight games went under 2.5. In like manner, Dundee have scored just two goals in their last five games; with four of those five games going below the 2.5 goal line. It’s also important to point out that clashes between these two have mostly been low-scoring; seven of their last eight encounters went under 2.5. This will likely be a low-scoring game.

St Johnstone vs Dundee: Team Overview
St Johnstone
St Johnstone capped their nightmare run with a disappointing loss to League Two side, Kelty Hearts in the Scottish Cup; they have now lost 10 in a row, and have no wins in their last 11 games. Callum Davidson will need to turn things around if he intends to keep his job; he’ll look to Chris Kane to lead the line.
Dundee
Unlike St Johnstone, Dundee United snapped their losing streak last weekend by beating League One side, Dumbarton; it was a much-needed win considering they’ve lost their last six league games. Dundee United will hope to build that win by beating a struggling St Johnstone side; it’s worth keeping an eye out for Luke McCowan.
