Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the Scottish Premiership match.
In one of the key match-ups of the 15th round this week, Dundee and Motherwell, both contenders for a top-six finish, go head-to-head. Dundee sit seventh, trailing the top six by just one point. Meanwhile, the visitors, Motherwell, are in fifth place, holding a three-point advantage over their upcoming hosts. It's a clear battle for six points.
Dundee
Dundee have remained unbeaten in their last four outings (two wins and two draws) following a goalless loss to Celtic (0:2). Both teams have found the back of the net in each of these matches. Specifically, at Dens Park, all seven home fixtures have seen bets on both teams to score and a total over 2.5 hit the mark.
Motherwell
In this aspect, Motherwell could certainly match Dundee. However, this doesn’t apply to their home fixtures as they've failed to score in three of their last five home games, including against Dundee on 19 October (0:1). But away from their ground, it's been goals galore at both ends across six consecutive matches, consistently finishing with a 2:1 scoreline either way.
Dundee vs Motherwell Prediction
What's the best bet here? Naturally, one centred around goals. Options include both teams to score and total over. The latter seems more reliable and slightly more lucrative.
