Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Global Energy Stadium will host Saturday’s Premiership game between Ross County and Dundee United. The Staggies missed out on a spot in the Conference League, and given their poor run of results, home win should not be considered. Ross County collected only one point in total from the previous four league fixtures, meaning that head coach Malcolm Mackay should opt to make changes to the team that suffered a 4-1 loss to Rangers at the weekend. Jordan White is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while goalkeeper Maynard-Brewer remains in the recovery room.
The Terrors, on the other hand, secured their spot in European competitions thanks to a 1-1 draw with newly-promoted champions Celtic. Dundee United have already got their job done, and seeing that both sides will be with guards down in Saturday’s clash, both teams to score betting option should be considered. All Marc McNulty, Maxime Biamou, Calum Butcher, and Ian Harkes are injured for the away side.
