History of the Dundee United v Glasgow Rangers fixture

Dundee Utd prepare to entertain Glasgow Rangers at Tannadice Park on Sunday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 36 of the 72 previous games, with the Tangerines winning just 16.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Tannadice Park was less than a year ago, in April 2003, as the visitors ran out cosy 1-4 winners in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Dundee United's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Tangerines have scored 6, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Rangers's away form is none too clever either, unbeaten in their last six, consisting of three wins and three draws. Those games have seen the The Gers pummel 13 goals, and let in 6.

Dundee Utd find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 3 games have yielded only 0 points. Rangers are leading the way in the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier, with their 3 games giving them a return of 9 points.
