Goal Statistics

Motherwell's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday afternoon, not least because Dundee have conceded in each of their last 6 Premiership matches. A PG of 1.8 for J. Askou's side suggests that run should continue.

With a PG of just 0.7, Dundee look set to find it difficult here. Add in the fact that Motherwell have kept a clean sheet in 3 consecutive Premiership matches, and it could be a long afternoon for S. Pressley's men.
