Dundee United vs Aberdeen: match statistics
Dundee United as the host has a clear advantage over Aberdeen playing away. The hosts show better scoring efficiency in home matches (1.08 goals per match) compared to Aberdeen away (merely 0.54 goals per match). Aberdeen has very poor away form with 69% losses and as many as 62% matches without scoring a goal, making them a weak opponent in away clashes. Dundee United earned 1.4 points per match in the last 5 games, identical to Aberdeen, however, xG statistics (1.52 vs 1.17) and possession (40% vs 44%) indicate a similar level for both teams. Taking into account the home field advantage and Aberdeen's problems with converting away chances, the hosts have a real chance of securing three points, although a draw cannot be ruled out due to Dundee United's high number of draws this season (38% in home matches).
