Dundee Utd v Dundee: derby stakes meet survival push | OneFootball

Dundee Utd and Dundee meet in the Scottish Premiership's relegation round at Tannadice on Sunday, 26 April 2026, with safety points and city bragging rights on the line.

Dundee Utd lead the relegation group on 40 points, with Dundee on 33. The last meeting ended 2-2 in March, and each side also won away earlier this season.

The Arabs have beaten Celtic and Livingston either side of a defeat at Rangers. Dundee's recent run reads a win over Motherwell, losses to Hearts and Celtic, then a draw at Kilmarnock.

United deliver plenty from wide, firing 472 open-play crosses at 24.15% accuracy and attempting 323 shots. Dundee keep the ball tidier with 76.48% passing accuracy. With 54 and 53 goals conceded respectively, neither defence has been watertight.

Amar Fatah and Zachary Sapsford lead United's scoring with eight apiece, while Will Ferry and Luca Stephenson have five assists each. For Dundee, Simon Murray has seven league goals and Cameron Congreve has supplied seven assists. With eight headed goals for the visitors and six for the hosts, crosses could be a route to deciding the margin.

A home win would take The Arabs to 43 points and strengthen their grip on the group. If Dundee claim the derby, they would move to 36 and could improve their position in the relegation round.
