Aberdeen head into this one in mixed form, with back-to-back wins steadied by two prior defeats, while Dundee Utd arrive in confident shape having won three of their last five on the road. The visitors sit one place above Aberdeen in the table, and the recent head-to-head record leans their way — Aberdeen are winless across the last three meetings, picking up just one draw and a defeat.

The goal data points firmly toward an open game. Dundee Utd's away BTTS rate of 69% stands well above the league average of 51%, and they've kept just one clean sheet in away fixtures all season. Aberdeen, meanwhile, have been relatively modest in attack at home, averaging 1.5 goals scored but also conceding regularly. The visitors look undervalued here given their superior recent form and a head-to-head record that favours them.
