- Dundee have not yet lost a game at home.
- Hearts has the most scored goals (29) in Championship
It's no vacation for neither Dundee nor Hearts as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Dundee form and stats
3 victories, 2 draws and 0 defeats. That’s what Dundee have to build on here at Kilmac Stadium at Dens Park in the Championship.
Dundee's previous game was a Championship match also played at home, ending 3-1 versus Alloa Athletic (placed 9th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Before that match, a win away at Queen of the South.
A decent goal production from Dundee in their home games so far, with 9 goals from 5 league matches. Dundee have conceded 5 in these home matches.
Hearts form and stats
Hearts, who have the most scored goals (29) in Championship, have six points from their first three away games in the Championship, meaning two victories and a loss. Hearts have been producing wins at home as well, producing a total of five victories in a row regardless of arena.
Hearts go into this game after a win, the home game against Arbroath that ended 3-1. That result followed a home victory 5-3 versus Ayr United.
S. Naismith certainly enjoyed Hearts's last game versus Arbroath, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 3-1 victory.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Hearts have scored 4 goals in 3 league games away. It's not easy to score on Hearts as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.
