History of the Dundee v Queen of the South fixture

Dundee prepare to entertain Queen of the South at Dens Park on Saturday afternoon, with high hopes of improving on their excellent record against the opposition, having taken all the points from 26 of the 35 contests.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Dens Park was less than a year ago, in February 2006, with Queen o.t.S. inflicting a narrow 2-3 defeat upon the Dees in a Scottish Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Dundee's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Dees have scored 4, a worringly large 7 have been leaked at the other end.

Queen o.t.S.'s away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. The The Doonhamers's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 7.

Dundee see themselves just below half way in the Bells Scottish Division One, showing a record of 6 points from their 5 games played so far, Queen o.t.S. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 1 points from 5 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Dundee at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Dees will at least gain a draw. No-score draw

Sequence statistics:
Dundee 13 games since last home draw.
Not drawn a match in their last 11 .
Queen o.t.S. Not won in previous 5 away matches.
No win in the 5 most recent games.
