Motherwell v Dundee Utd: top-four push meets mid-table climb | OneFootball

Motherwell host Dundee Utd in the Scottish Premiership at Fir Park on Saturday, 28 February 2026, with the hosts defending fourth place and the visitors looking to lift themselves from seventh.

The sides drew 0-0 in December, while earlier this season Motherwell beat Dundee Utd 2-0 in October. That recent split points to a tight match-up with a slight home edge.

Motherwell are unbeaten in their last three league games, including a 5-0 win at St Mirren and a home victory over Aberdeen. The Arabs have one league win in five but drew their past two.

Motherwell's defence has been a platform all season: 15 clean sheets and only 0.7 goals conceded per game, alongside 59% possession and 86.04% passing accuracy. Tawanda Maswanhise leads the Premiership scoring chart with 14 this season, Elijah Just has six goals and six assists, and Callum Slattery sits on seven assists. United average 41% possession and have four clean sheets. Amar Fatah has eight goal involvements this season and Zachary Sapsford leads their scoring with six.

A win would take Motherwell to 53 points and could tighten their grip on fourth. United would move to 33 points with victory and may close in on the top half.
