Dundee United vs Kilmarnock Prediction & Betting Tips - Scottish Premiership
by Devesh Jaganath | in Football Predictions
Bottom-club Dundee United will look to keep their survival hopes alive when they take on tenth-placed Kilmarnock on Wednesday. The hosts are three points behind their opponents and a win will take United above Kilmarnock. United are only two points behind Ross County who are in the relegation play-off position. They'll be hoping that County don't beat St Johnstione as defeat here will see them go down. They ended the first phase of the league in tenth place, but following three consecutive losses coming into this match, they have slumped into relegation territory with two games to go. The hosts have taken 20 points of a possible 51 at Tannadice Park, though they have lost five of their last eight. Dundee holds a better goal difference than Kilmarnock; therefore,
Kilmarnock picked up a crucial win over Livingston last week, which saw them move out of the relegation playoff spot and into safety. However, they were unable to follow up against St. Johnstone over the weekend, losing 2-1 and leaving them still looking nervously over their shoulders at the sides below them. The visitors have won two and lost four of their last six matches, and their away record has been extremely poor this season, too. In 17 matches on the road this season, Kilmarnock have managed only one win and two draws. The visitors did manage a 1-0 win over this opponent in a cup match on this ground in February. Another win here will make them favorites to avoid the drop this season and will also guarantee them safety if Ross County loses.
