Dundee v Hibernian: betting preview, tips, when to watch

TV: BT Sport 2, 7.45pm Friday

Improving Dundee look good value to hand new Hibs boss Paul Heckingbottom a setback in the Ladbrokes Premiership.

Jim McIntyre's side have been on the up and are unbeaten in their last three games, which is in stark contrast to the dismal campaign they endured under the hapless Neil McCann.

The arrivals of Andrew Nelson, Scott Wright and Ryan McGowan among their ten January signings have transformed the Dens Park side.

Hibs laboured to a home win against Hamilton last week in Heckingbottom's first game, but they looked vulnerable at the back.
It may take time for the former Barnsley and Leeds boss to put his stamp on his team and they look too short.

Recommendation
Dundee
1pt 7-2 general
