Built from: Form from settled results on this site. Prices from the odds feed.
The market makes Dundee United the side to beat here at 37%, but only just, so this reads as a close call rather than a mismatch. Our model lands on Dundee United, and it backs that with a 1 unit stake. Dundee United head to McDiarmid Park as slight favourites despite patchy recent form. Both teams have traded wins and losses lately so this is a tough one to call.
St Johnstone come in poor, winning 17% of 6 on record. 1 of their 3 home games went their way, and the numbers point to a fairly even scoring record. Right now they are on 1 draw in a row.
Dundee United come in patchy, winning 33% of 6 on record. 2 of their 4 away games went their way, and the numbers point to a fairly even scoring record. Right now they are on 1 win in a row.
The prices turn into 36% for STJ, 27% for the draw and 37% for DUN once the bookmaker margin is stripped out. There is little between the two in the market, so the edge, if there is one, sits in the detail rather than the headline price. Our call sits at 2.50, and we only stake it because the reasons for it outweigh the reasons against.
We back Dundee United for 1 unit. It settles itself when the game ends, win or lose, and it goes on the record either way. This is an opinion read off the form and the prices on this page, not advice, and never a promise of a result.
