One of the most enthralling fixtures of the opening round of the Scottish Premiership sees Dundee United host Dundee in the derby at Tannadice.
Both clubs enjoyed positive campaigns in 2023/24 as Dundee United emphatically won the Championship to gain promotion, while Dundee finished in the top fix.

United have featured in the League Cup Group Phase over the last few weeks and in that time they have recorded wins versus Stenhousemuir, Ayr and Buckie Thistle, though they did lose their opening match 2-0 versus Falkirk.

Dundee current form
Dundee, meanwhile, were one of the most impressive teams in the League Cup Group Phase as they won all four of their games against Bonnyrigg Rose, Arbroath, Annan Athletic and Inverness Caledonian Thistle.

There's only one injury concern for United and it concerns Ryan Strain who had to be withdrawn against Stenhousemuir due to a hamstring strain.
This summer, the Tannadice side have recruited Strain, David Babunski, Will Ferry, Dave Richards, Vicko Sevelj, Kristijan Trapanovski, Jack Walton, Jort van der Sande and Richard Odada.
Joe Shaughnessy remains absent for Dundee due to a cruciate ligament injury. Any of Clark Robertson, Ethan Ingram, Jon McCracken, Simon Murray, Ziyad Larkeche and Seb Palmer-Houlden could make their league debuts.
