Prediction: 1-1
Kilmarnock
Dundee play host to Kilmarnock at their Dens Park in the Premiership relegation final, first leg. Dundee aim to return to the Scottish top flight following a two-year absence, and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field. The Dark Blues are eyeing their first win over Kilmarnock since May 2017, but they will have a mountain to climb in Thursday’s clash. A man to watch in the home team will be Jason Cummings, who has netted 8 goals in the Championship this season.
The Killie, on the other hand, did well to avoid automatic relegation. Kilmarnock head into the match following a 2-0 win over Hamilton, and seeing that they have been showing signs of improvement of late, share of spoils is on the cards at Dens Park. Dundee defenders should have Mitchell Pinnock at bay as he scored a brace in the triumph over Hamilton.
