Dundee FC enter this Premiership clash in strong form after edging Dundee United 1â0 in the derby, extending their run to three straight wins. However, we predict a 1-0 win over Hearts this time out as the league leaders look unstoppable at the moment. Despite the absence of forward Joe Westley, Steven Presleyâs men have been efficient at home, earning 1.80 points per game and scoring 1.40 goals on average at Dens Park. However, defensive inconsistencies remain an issue, with Dundee conceding 1.60 goals per home match and posting an xGA of 1.78, suggesting they often allow opponents high-quality chances.The Jambos continue to set the pace at the top of the table, winning four of their last five league outings. Derek McInnesâs side look well-balanced, averaging 1.50 goals scored while conceding just 0.80 per game overall. Their defensive structure is particularly impressive away from home, highlighted by an xGA of only 1.22. Even with Ageu, Pollock, and Nieuwenhof sidelined, the visitors have the squad depth to cope and maintain their title push.
