Betfred Cup Group C
BT Sport 1, 3pm Sunday

Dundee gleefully relegated their street and city rivals 15 months ago at Dens Park and there could be plenty of goals as United seek revenge.

United were sunk when Dundee came from behind to win 2-1 and officially relegated the Tannadice side to the Ladbrokes Championship, where they still are.

And when United make the 200 yards shortest away trip in world football today, they will face a Dundee side under new a manager in Neil McCann.

Both sides have won all three games in the Betfred Cup in some style, albeit against the likes of Buckie Thistle and Cowdenbeath.

And with Dundee striker Sofien Moussa and United's Paul McMullan in good form, there could be a few goals.

Recommendation
Over 2.5 goals

Team news

Dundee are without long term injury victims, defenders Julen Etxabeguren and James McPake. Craig Wighton could be out for the season after a cruciate knee injury this week.

United are without Patrick N’Koyi and James Keatings. Willo Flood is a doubt and new signing Scott McDonald is unlikely to start.

Key stat

Both sides have won all three games in the Betfred Cup, kept two clean sheets and conceded just one goal.
