Prediction : Dundee Utd 2-0 Kilmarnock
These are two teams that have had very similar seasons so far, sitting in 6th and 7th place a point apart. They have both recently embarrassed Rangers at Ibrox too so Kilmarnock can not even hold that as an advantage. Amazingly Dundee Utd are unbeaten in their last 10 league matches against Kilmarnock (7W 3D). When I look at the opta stats for this one thing sticks out, that Kilmarnock are the 2nd worse in the league behind Hearts for scoring away goals with only 9 in 13 matches. So one thing is for sure I'm not expecting them to contribute much to a high scoring game. Rather I reckon this could be a tight affair and if I had to side with anybody it would clearly be Dundee Utd given the fixtures history. I'll have a pop at the match staying under 2.5 goals as 7 out of those last 10 have been unders.
Under 2.5 Goals @ 1.83 (Bwin)
