With both sides pushing for a top-six finish, Motherwell and Dundee United meet in one of the round’s most intriguing fixtures of round 29, with 2-1 our predicted outcome. The Well have been excellent at home, collecting 2.67 points per game and winning 83% of their Fir Park matches. Their defensive record is particularly impressive: only 0.17 goals conceded per home match and 83% clean sheets. Despite injuries to Hendry, Koutroumbis, and Robinson, Stuart Kettlewell’s side come into this clash full of confidence after another strong display.
Dundee United, meanwhile, remain unpredictable. They average a huge 4.50 total goals in away games, but their defence struggles on the road, conceding 2.50 goals per away match, with 0% away clean sheets. Injuries to Pappoe and Sibbald reduce their midfield stability, but the Terrors' recent form (LWWDD) shows they can compete when their attack clicks.
The H2H record is perfectly balanced: 14 wins each from 33 matches. However, Motherwell’s superior home form and defensive solidity give them the edge. Therefore, Home Win is our main betting tip for this Premiership fixture, with additional value on Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals as Dundee United away games average 4.50 goals.
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Saturday 28 February 2026 at 15:00.
