Dundee United Preview – Can Dundee Utd end losing run?
Four defeats on the trot have prevented Dundee United from further consolidating their top six position in the Scottish Premiership and the hosts are now barely clinging onto 6th spot ahead of these Boxing Day fixtures.
Losses to Motherwell, Celtic, Livingston and Rangers have dented Dundee United’s progress, while the bigger picture shows The Tangerines have managed to win just one of their last nine matches overall.
Dundee United have also lost three of their last four games at home so the prospects of a home win here but the under 2.5 goals market looks promising as seven of Dundee Utd’s nine home games have been under 2.5 goals.
Hibernian Preview – Can Hibs win three on trot?
Recent back-to-back wins in the Scottish top flight over Dundee and Aberdeen, both by 1-0 margins and on home soil at Easter Road have helped Hibs up into 5th place but the visitors will be keen to extend this winning streak on Boxing Day in order to cement their place in the top six.
Despite an earlier win away at St Johnstone though, Hibernain have produced a string of inconsistent results of late and indeed, the visitors have managed to win just three out of their last 12 matches overall.
In addition, just one away win from their last eight outings on the road doesn’t fill one with much confidence but five of Hibernian’s nine away games have also been under 2.5 goals.
