Motherwell will try to recover from a thrilling 3-3 draw with St. Mirren when they take on Dundee United in the Premiership round 4. The Well have been involved in several high-scoring encounters lately, although their home defensive record offers some encouragement, with Motherwell keeping clean sheets in 75% of their last four home matches. Motherwell have also won 50% of their last 10 games at home. Callum Hendry, Jordan McGhee and Paul McGinn remain in the recovery room, while summer signing Jardell Kanga is pushing for a start.
Dundee United, meanwhile, will be full of confidence after dismantling Kilmarnock 4-0. The Terrors produced an excellent attacking display, registering 3.42 xG and 21 goal attempts, and have recorded a 1.90 xG average across their last 10 matches. However, their recent away form has been inconsistent, with three defeats in their last five away games. There are no fresh injury worries for the visitors. The H2H record is extremely balanced, with Motherwell winning 15 of the last 34 meetings compared with Dundee United's 14.
Dundee Utd's 3.42 xG performance last time out suggests they can cause problems despite their inconsistent away form. Therefore, we are tempted to bet on Dundee Utd or Draw, alongside Over 2.5 and Over 1.5 goals (65% of the last 34 H2H meetings produced at least two goals).
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Wednesday 2 September 2026 at 19:45.
