Dundee Utd v Dundee: Pick of the stats
[SNS] Dundee United have scored exactly twice in six of their past seven Scottish Premiership games against Dundee, though the exception was their last at home, a 1-0 defeat in January. Dundee have won their past two Premiership visits to Tannadice, as many as their previous 20 in the top flight beforehand (W2 D11 L7). United have won three successive league games, last winning four in a row on home soil in the division in November 2014.
When in the bottom six, Dundee have won their first game after the split in five of the past seven occasions (D1 L1), including a 1-0 victory at Hearts last season. Since the start of February, only Youssef Chermiti (seven) has more Premiership goals than Simon Murray (six). Murray has now scored 26 goals in 80 appearances for Dundee in the competition – just two fewer than he netted in 95 games for all his other clubs (including United) combined in the top flight (28).
