Dundee Utd – Dundee

Dundee United’s home ground proved a costly venue as they fell 0‑2 to city rivals Dundee, slipping further down the table to ninth place with five points from six games. The visitors, now sixth with seven points, sharpened their push for a top‑half finish, improving their goal difference to +1 after the win. Dundee’s solitary league triumph over United this season tipped the head‑to‑head balance in their favour, leaving United still searching for a response. Both sides remain in a tight mid‑table cluster, with United needing a turnaround after three defeats in their last six encounters.
