Dundee form and stats

Dundee must be fairly happy with 5 points from their first three Premiership games here at Kilmac Stadium at Dens Park.

Dundee shared the glory with Hibernian in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0. The Dundee goalkeeper Carson was crucial in the match against Hibernian last time out, making nine saves. Carson, who guards the goal, was given a match rating of 9.64 out of 10 in that game. Carson topped it up with a clean sheet.

Before that, Dundee drew at home versus Kilmarnock.

This is expected to be a close game, with Dundee perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Dundee as a small favourite), we find 5 games. Dundee has won 1 of these, drawn 3 and lost 1.

There will be little rest for Dundee after this match as they are travelling to Livingston for a Premiership game in only four days.

Dundee are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 3 games.

Ross County failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Hearts (placed 4th) that ended with defeat 0-1. The attacker Dhanda got a match rating of 7.13 in that game. Dhanda hit two key passes.

The game before was the League Cup-duel against Aberdeen, a home loss (1-2). So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest.
