Match description

I back an away win (Dundee United). Over the season Dundee have scored 48 goals vs St. Mirren’s 29, and in the last 5 matches they’ve netted 6 (2W, 1D, 2L), whereas St. Mirren have only 4 goals in their last 5 (1W, 4L) and conceded 12 in that span. Away, Dundee average 1.33 goals with xG 1.37 and a shot conversion of 11%, while St. Mirren at home average 0.56 goals with xG 1.4 and fail to score in 61% of home matches, indicating finishing issues. Defensively the hosts look better at home – St. Mirren concede 1.17 goals at home and have 44% clean sheets, whereas Dundee concede 2.06 goals away and have only 6% clean sheets, so the match may be open with goals at both ends. Considering superior conversion (11% vs 5%) and recent form (PPG 1.4 for Dundee vs 0.6 for St. Mirren), I give the away side the edge, although a draw remains a realistic outcome.
