Two teams battling to salvage their campaigns meet this weekend as Ross County travel to Dens Park to take on Dundee FC in an important Scottish Premiership match on Saturday evening with kickoff at 18:00.
Both sides have made disappointing campaigns this season with Dundee claiming just four wins from their 23 matches while picking up six draws and suffering 13 defeats in the process and currently sit at the foot of the table level on 12 points with St Johnstone, while Ross County have recorded just five wins from their 24 matches, picking up eight draws and suffering 11 defeats in the process to sit 10th on 23 points.
Both head into the match in poor forms with Dundee having just won one of their last nine matches across all competitions, picking up two draws while suffering six defeats in the process, Ross County on the other hand have only claimed one win from their last six matches across all competitions, picking up two draws while suffering three defeats in the process.
However, both are in a bit of good spirits heading into the match with James McPake’s side coming off a three-match unbeaten run in all competitions, overcoming Dumbarton 1-0 in the Scottish cup before recording back-to-back 0-0 draws in the Premiership against St Johnstone and Dundee United, and two draws in the run, while Malky Mackay’s sides are unbeaten in their last two league matches recording a 3-3 draw against Rangers before picking a 1-1 draw against Aberdeen.
Therefore both will be looking to extend their unbeaten runs as they both aim at salvaging their seasons, but they will both need to turn their draws to wins if they are to save their campaigns. Ross County, though, will fancy their chances as they have already beaten their hosts twice this season, claiming 5-0 and 3-2 wins.
