As Dundee United have been struggling to find their rhythm in early December, we predict that they will suffer a 1-0 loss to Motherwell on Saturday afternoon. Jim Goodwin has a full squad available, but United’s issues lie in both boxes: they score just 1.00 goal per match while conceding 1.70, and they have 0 clean sheets so far. Even at Tannadice Park, their record remains modest with just 1.00 point per game.
The Well have been in a fine form of late. The visitors are unbeaten in five (W-W-D-D-W), producing excellent balance between defence and attack. They score 1.50 goals per match while conceding only 0.90, and their away form is even more impressive with 2.00 points per game. Despite a lengthy injury list, their commanding 3-0 win over Livingston last weekend showed the squad remains competitive and confident. The H2H record is split (14 wins each from 32), but Motherwell are the side carrying momentum. With United failing to score in 40% of matches and Motherwell keeping 50% clean sheets, the visitors look well placed.
Given Motherwell's promising form and better defensive metrics, we are tempted to bet on Away Win. Under 3.5 and Under 2.5 goals betting options are also worth considering (Dundee Utd average 1.00 scored; Motherwell concede only 0.90).
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Saturday 13 December 2025 at 15:00.
