Team News

Dundee FC
Motherwell
  • Dundee boss Tony Docherty named just one enforced change to the Dee team that beat Aberdeen 1-0 at Dens before the international break, as they clinched back-to-back league victories with a 2-1 Tayside derby success on Saturday.
  • Jon McCracken remained in goal, behind an unchanged Dee defence consisting of Antonio Portales, Joe Shaughnessy and Aaron Donnelly. Dara Costelloe continued at right wing-back, with Owen Dodgson at left wing back against St Johnstone.
  • Mo Sylla, Lyall Cameron and Luke McCowan carried on in midfield. Scott Tiffoney was partnered by Amadou Bakayoko in attack - who netted the weekend winner at McDiarmid Park - at the injured Curtis Main's expense.
  • Stuart Kettlewell named four changes to the Motherwell team that lost by a sole goal to Aberdeen at Fir Park before the international break, as they were held at home by St Mirren in a 1-1 draw at the weekend.
  • Stephen O'Donnell moved into the Steelmen's back three, as Adam Devine took Bevis Mugabi's place in the team to start at right wing-back. Davor Zdravkovski and Andy Halliday both re-entered the Motherwell midfield.
  • Georgie Gent came in at left wing-back, to replace Shane Blaney. Sam Nicholson and Lennon Miller dropped onto the bench, as Blair Spittal looked to support Jack Vale and Theo Bair - who netted against Saints on Saturday - up front.

Prediction

  • Dundee are still in the mix for a place in the top six, meanwhile that possibility is slipping away from Motherwell who have two games to go before the Scottish Premiership split.
  • The Dee had won just one of their previous 11 matches against St Johnstone in Perth before their weekend win, a 2-0 victory in December 2017, as their Tayside derby success could prove pivotal to finish in the top half of the table. Their away record is the fourth-best in the division, but they have two games to play at Dens Park so are looking to make home advantage count.
  • Motherwell avoided a third consecutive league defeat at Fir Park, bouncing back to a 1-1 draw against St Mirren, as the Well have lost just one of their last six home meetings with the Buddies. Ironically, the Steelmen have the fifth-best away record in the division as they've picked up one point less (16) on the road as they have at home in the Scottish Premiership this season (17).
  • Both league meetings have ended in a share of the spoils, a six-goal thriller at Fir Park in December succeding a 1-1 draw at Dens on the opening day, but if Dundee are serious about top six then they must find a way past Motherwell here and end the possibility of the Well finishing top six.
