DUNDEE UNITED V KILMARNOCK PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS AND FACTS

Dundee United sit a disappointing 8^th in the SPL this season, they have 16 points from 12 matches with 4 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats.  They have scored an average of 1.08 goals per game while conceding 1.25.  Their last 5 matches have seen 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat, with 6 goals scored and 5 conceded.  2 of the 5 matches ended with over 2.5 goals.

Kilmarnock are 6^th in the SPL with 18 points from 13 matches, winning 5, drawing 3 and losing 5.  They have averaged 1.54 goals per match, conceding 1.15.  Their recent form has seen 2 wins and 3 losses from 5 matches with 8 goals scored and 7 conceded.  4 of the 5 games had over 2.5 goals.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Dundee United had the goal of finishing 2^nd in the SPL this season and taking the Champions League qualifier spot and the large increase in prize money.  That looks a long way off however as they languish in 8^th position, 8 points off leaders Hibernian. 

Striker Johnny Russell attracted interest in the summer from Celtic and some English sides but Dundee United felt no offers met their valuation and have made him a fixture in the team this season.  In his 12 matches so far he has managed 5 goals which make him equal 5^th top scorer in the league.

Kilmarnock complained bitterly about the loss of revenue with Rangers going out of business but they don’t seem too affected now and are having a strong season in 6^th place.  Ex Celtic player Cillian Sheridan has become the focal point of their attack and the 23 year old Irishman has taken his chance, scoring 5 goals in just 8 appearances.

DUNDEE UNITED V KILMARNOCK PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

Dundee United are the favourites here as the home side.  They may be behind Kilmarnock in the league but if they win their game in hand they’d move ahead of them.  United have not won at home in 4 attempts but they got a strong 2-2 draw with Celtic in their last match at Tannadice and that will give them confidence to win this game.

William Hill is top price at 1.95 for this, a strong price for United at home.

DUNDEE UNITED V KILMARNOCK PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

If United’s recent home record doesn’t fill you with confidence then the Asian handicap market allows us to back against a home win.  We can back Kilmarnock +0.5 which will pay out whether the match finishes in a draw or an away win.

If you don’t fancy the home team then Bet365 are offering 2.0 on Kilmarnock +0.5

DUNDEE UNITED V KILMARNOCK PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GOALS PREVIEW

United have seen an average of 2.4 goals per game over their last 5 matches while Kilmarnock have seen 3.0 per match.  The market sees over/under 2.5 goals as very tight with no difference between prices. 

I think the young strikers Russell and Sheridan are quality players who can do damage and if both start I like Over 2.5 Goals at 1.95 with 188bet.
