Dundee vs Queen of South
2018-03-20 21:17Dundee(登地,邓迪) United were quite a favorite in a home match against Inverness last Saturday afternoon, but the side failed to obtain all three points in only a 1:1 draw back then.
Their visitors took the lead in 30th minute via Vigurs and it took some time for the players of Dundee United(登地聯,邓迪联队) to get back into the match completely, as they increased the pressure in the second part and deservedly scored the equalizer in 64th minute thanks to a goal from Mikkelsen, remaining till the end a bit better however without further scoreline change.
With this point taken the side remained at third position thanks to setbacks from other rivals, as they have just a point more than fourth placed Morton and five points more than out of play-off zone placed Dunfermline(鄧弗姆林,邓弗姆林).
Central defender Lewis Toshney (4/0) is injured, as well as midfielders Fraser Fyvie (15/2) and Jordie Briels (7/0) and offensive player Scott Fraser (14/3).
Queen of South(南部皇后,南部皇后), on the other hand, comes from yet another defeat this time in front of own fans against St Mirren, league leaders on Saturday afternoon with a 1:3 result.
First halftime was quite equal one, with the visitors taking the lead in seventeenth minute via Mullen, while the home team leveled up in next minutes with a goal from Marshall. However, it was obvious that the visitors were stronger and they proved it in the second part of the game, reaching the three pointer with goals from Morgan in 52nd and Magennis in 63rd minute of the game.
It was their second consecutive defeat, both in front of own fans as they previously lost to Dundee United with the same score and are now five points behind fourth and play-off placed Morton, meaning that they need to get something out of this clash. Guests should have no fresh injury worries.
Last seven mutual matches between these two ended with both teams scoring.
After two consecutive defeats players of Queen of South have very little to wait for and will surely try to attack here, surprise and get back into the play-off zone race. Knowing this, the game itself should be wide open, with both teams finding the net in quite an easy manner this time - something that they usually did in previous mutual matches.
