History of the Dundee United v Hibernian fixture

Hibernian face a trip to Dundee United at Tannadice Park on Saturday evening, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Hibees have won 18 of the 70 games compared to the host's 33 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2003, with Hibernian inflicting a narrow 1 - 2 defeat upon the Tangerines in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Dundee United's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Tangerines have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Hibernian's away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. While the Hibees have hit 9 goals, 14 have hit the back of the wrong net.
