History of the Dundee United v Kilmarnock fixture

Dundee Utd prepare to entertain Kilmarnock at Tannadice Park on Saturday evening, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. It couldn't be much closer,Tangerines having the edge 18 games to 16.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Tannadice Park was less than a year ago, in January 2003, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Dundee United could not have a worse home record, losing every single one of the last six matches played! While Tangerines have scored 4, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Kilmarnock's away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the Killie have hit 6 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Dundee Utd are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 4 points from 6 matches. Kilmarnock see themselves just below half way in the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier, showing a record of 7 points from their 6 games played so far,

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Dundee Utd at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Tangerines will at least gain a draw. No-score draw

Dundee Utd Been beaten in each of their previous 6 home matches.
