- Dundee have not yet lost a game at home.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Dundee and Rangers.
Dundee form and stats
Three Premiership home games done for Dundee, who are not happy collecting 3 points from these matches. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points here at Kilmac Stadium at Dens Park, but a victory now would be sweet for Dundee.
P. McGowan was the last player to score a league goal for Dundee and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Dundee haven't scored in 277 minutes.
Dundee's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus St. Johnstone (placed 8th).
A Premiership defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Dundee United.Despite playing at their own arena the home team are massive underdogs in this game. The home fans will enjoy their drinks and snacks knowing that the chances of a positive outcome are very slim. When Dundee have been in this position before, they have won zero, drawn zero and lost one from one game. zero defeats by at least two goals.
The Dundee fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 4 in 3 matches. On the other hand, Dundee have conceded 4 goals.
Rangers form and stats
Rangers have six points from their first three away games in the Premiership, meaning two victories and a loss. Momentum is building for Rangers in their away games, having won their two previous outings.
Rangers won their last game, 2-0 versus Livingston played at home.
A draw for Rangers before that, at their own venue hosting Motherwell (1-1).Again, the away team are huge favourites in this match and any other result would be an upset.
