General match analysis

Dundee have home advantage: they average 1.6 goals scored and 1.2 conceded at home, while Kilmarnock score 1.25 and concede 1.75 goals per away match. The hosts have picked up points in 4 of their 5 home games, whereas the visitors have lost half of their away fixtures. Both teams have identical records over their last five matches—2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat each—so current form does not give Dundee a clear edge. The quality of chances created is also almost identical: average xG stands at 1.33 for the hosts and 1.32 for the visitors. The pick for Dundee is based primarily on their stronger defensive record across the season: 10 goals conceded compared with Kilmarnock's 20, although the teams' similar xG leaves a genuine chance of a draw.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

In their last 5 matches, both teams scored in 100% of Dundee's games and 80% of Kilmarnock's, a stronger signal than their season averages of 60% and 50%, respectively. Dundee concede an average of 2.6 goals at home and have yet to keep a clean sheet, making an away goal likely. Dundee, meanwhile, score an average of 1.0 goal at home, while Kilmarnock concede 1.75 goals away, so the hosts could also find the net. The risk to the BTTS - Yes pick is that Kilmarnock keep a clean sheet in 50% of their away matches, while Dundee fail to score in 40% of their home games. Despite this, the recent run and average xG of 1.22 for Dundee and 1.32 for Kilmarnock point to both teams scoring.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Dundee concede an average of 2.6 goals per match, while opponents create chances worth 2.02 xG against them, which bodes well for Kilmarnock to score. On the other hand, the hosts generate 1.22 xG, while Kilmarnock’s opponents average 1.84 xG, giving Dundee a solid chance of finding the net as well. Over their last 5 matches, both teams averaged at least 1.4 goals scored and 1.4 conceded, although games with over 2.5 goals accounted for 80% of Dundee’s matches compared with 40% of Kilmarnock’s. Therefore, the projected total of 3.0 goals most strongly supports Over 1.5 goals: this line landed in 80% of Dundee’s matches, and backing it is less dependent on a third goal than betting on a higher line.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Dundee’s defensive record is the strongest indicator before the break: the hosts concede an average of 1.6 goals in the first half and were trailing at half-time in 3 of 5 matches, while Kilmarnock concede an average of 1.0 in that period. Across full matches, Dundee concede 2.6 goals on average, compared with 1.75 for the visitors, while opponents’ xG stands at 2.02 and 1.84 respectively, supporting the case for Kilmarnock to maintain their advantage. The visitors also average 5.0 shots on target per match, compared with Dundee’s 3.6, and have kept a clean sheet in 50% of their matches, while the hosts have yet to do so. However, the 2/2 HT/FT pick carries only a moderate edge: Kilmarnock have led at the break in just 1 of 4 matches, and both teams have earned 1.6 points per match over their last five games, making a draw at half-time followed by an away win a significant alternative.
