Dundee Preview – Can Dundee achieve winning return?

Dundee finished runners-up in last season’s Scottish Championship behind the clear league winners, Hearts, which meant that Dundee had to go into the play-offs fro promotion but the hosts duly delivered with two-legged wins against Raith Rovers 3-1 on aggregate and a 4-2 win over Premiership side, Kilmarnock.

Dundee have also produced impressive displays in the early stages of this new season in the League Cup as well as The Dees have registered wins against Brora Rangers 4-0, Ross County 3-0, Montrose 2-0 and a 5-2 thrashing of Forfar Athletic.

The bigger picture shows that Dundee have lost just one of their last 17 matches in all competitions and the hosts will be in confident mood for this season-opener against St Mirren, while goals also look likely with each of Dundee’s last nine games seeing 2 goals or more scored.

St Mirren Preview – Can St Mirren see off new-boys?

A 7th place finish at the end of last season’s Scottish Premiership campaign meant a second phase position in the Relegation Group where they not only successfully avoided relegation but also finished top of the group as well.

However, St Mirren finished last season with just two wins from their last 13 matches overall in the Scottish top flight, both of which were achieved home and away against Ross County, but four defeats and seven draws suggest an away win here may seem unlikely.

Goals look to be on the cards though as six of St Mirren’s last eight away games have also seen 2 goals or more scored.
