Hamilton Academical have struggled for points this league season. Can the team get a victory when Dundee stop by Fountain of Youth Stadium?
- Hamilton Academical have the fewest scored goals (18) in Championship
- Dundee have the most clean sheets (10) in Championship
7-0-1 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Dundee when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those eight matches are 18-4 (scored/conceded).
This could be an interesting game with lots of fun and bustle as both sides are well recovered since they last saw competitive action. Let's go!
Hamilton Academical form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Championship this season. Hamilton Academical have only managed 2 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses from their games here at Fountain of Youth Stadium.
The Academical goalkeeper Ryan Fulton is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 238 minutes without conceding a goal in the Championship.
Hamilton Academical enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Partick Thistle's place. The match ended 1-0 with Stephenson scoring. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of Rankin when Stephenson scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 46th minute.
A 0-0 scoreline against Ross County before that, played at their own home stadium in the Scottish Cup.
It should be added that a look at the 16 latest league matches shows that 12 of them qualified as a both teams to score: NO result (only one or none of the teams scored).
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Queen of the South are coming to town in three days.
With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Hamilton Academical defense is not exactly impregnable. 17 goals conceded from 10 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

The visitors, who have the most clean sheets (10) in Championship, are W5-D4-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Championship.

Before that one, the win at home hosting Dunfermline Athletic in the Challenge Cup (4-2).
After this away game Dundee return home for a Challenge Cup game against Raith Rovers. That game is only four sleeps after this.

There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
