Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Motherwell will be looking to build on back-to-back wins over Hibernian (3-1) and Livingston (3-0) when they take on Dundee United at Fir Park in the Premiership round 32. The Well are eyeing a top-six finish, and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach against the Terrors. A man to watch in the home team will be Dutch forward Kevin van Veen, who has been scoring goals for fun of late, while Nathan McGinley and Jonathan Obika remain in the recovery room.
The Terrors, on the other hand, are stuck at the bottom with only 25 points on their account, but they regained a much-needed confidence thanks to a 2-1 win over Hibernian. Anyhow, home win should be considered as the rock-bottom side have been struggling on the travels this term (1-5-9). All Liam Smith, Peter Pawlett, Dylan Levitt, and Glenn Middleton remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Highlighted Player (Josh Morris):
Josh Morris is a product of Blackburn Rovers football school who plays for Fleetwood Town in the League One. Morris’ main position is left midfielder, but he is capable of playing as both left-back and central midfielder as well.
