Dundee vs Rangers Predictions


A bruised Rangers side should have enough quality and character to get back to winning ways in a likely high-scoring contest at Dens Park.

I'm backing the Gers to win with at least three goals scored, while I also expect BTTS to land on Wednesday. 

  • Dundee have seen BTTS & over 2.5 goals in 4 of their last 6 home matches
  • Dundee have seen over 2.5 goals in 7 of their last 9 home matches
  • Dundee have lost 11 of their last 12 matches against Rangers
  • Rangers have seen over 2.5 goals in 9 of their last 11 victories against Dundee (Premiership)
  • Rangers have won 11 of their last 14 away matches
  • Rangers have seen over 2.5 goals in 13 of their last 14 matches (Premiership)
  • Rangers have seen BTTS & over 2.5 goals in 7 of their last 9 matches

Head to Head


Rangers have a dominant record in matches played against Dundee this century. The Gers won 32 of their last 40 meetings since 2000. Dundee claimed victory on just three occasions. 

The Glasgow giants scored an easy 5-0 win In their most recent encounter at Dens Park. 

Dundee Form


Dundee secured their place in the end-of-season Premiership split after the Dark Blues claimed a hard-fought goalless draw at Aberdeen on Saturday. Tony Docherty's side have lost just one of their last five matches since a 7-1 drubbing at Celtic Park in February. 

At the much-maligned Dens Park, Dundee have won five and lost five of their last 12 home Premiership fixtures since the end of October (W5, D2, L5). 

The Dark Blues sit sixth in the Premiership, two points behind fifth-placed St Mirren.

Dundee Team News


Dundee boss Docherty is set to welcome back Curtis Main to the Dark Blues matchday squad. Malachi Boateng could come into the first XI should Docherty look to freshen his selection.

Diego Pineda and Owen Beck are the only expected absentees for the home side. 

Rangers Form


Rangers come into Wednesday's Premiership contest after a disastrous 3-2 defeat at Ross County on Sunday. A remarkable second-half collapse allowed County to claim their first-ever win against the Glasgow giants.

A likely costly defeat in the race for the title, Rangers trail leaders Celtic by four points, but having played one game fewer than the Hoops. Phillipe Clement's side had won four in a row on the road before their shock defeat in the Highlands over the weekend. 

Rangers Team News


Head coach Clement is likely to make some changes to his selection after Sunday's dismal defeat in Dingwall. 

Turkish full-back Ridvan Yilmaz could come back into the squad, while Dujon Sterling and Nico Raskin are among those in contention for a recall to the Gers starting XI. 

Oscar Cortes and Danilo remain long-term absentees for the away side. 

Verdict

Rangers know only a win will do on Wednesday as they look to recover from Sunday's setback in the Highlands.
 
I expect a response from the visitors, so I'm backing an away win with at least three goals scored in a game where we can also expect BTTS.
