Over 2.5 Goals Looks Too Good to Miss

The Total Goals market provides us with a strong betting angle considering we can wager on Over 2.5 at the available odds of 1.70. Expect Dundee United and Aberdeen to run home the goals needed for a return.

2-2 Draw When Teams Last Met

Dundee United lost away in their last game, making it four consecutive losses. Rangers won 3-1 at Ibrox Stadium. Jim Goodwin's men ended up with just 22% possession and had three shots on target, while Samuel Cleall-Harding bagged the goal.

Aberdeen suffered a third consecutive defeat when losing 5-1 in their previous game. This was at home to Celtic at Pittodrie Stadium. The Dons were restricted to just 31% possession and managed four shots on goal, while Kevin Nisbet was on the scoresheet.

Pittodrie Stadium played host to the last head-to-head when home team Aberdeen drew 2-2 with United. The previous 10 H2H games have resulted in four wins apiece and two draws.
