Dundee United will attempt to get back to winning ways in the Scottish Premiership when they host Kilmarnock at Tannadice on Wednesday.

The home side come into proceedings off the back of four straight defeats in all competitions, while visitors Kilmarnock make the trip following a loss against Livingston.

We say: Dundee United 1-1 Kilmarnock

In a match that has significant consequences at the foot of the table, both sides will look to overpower each other to climb further away from the relegation places.

Nevertheless, there will be no separating the two on the day, meaning a point apiece will have to do for Dundee United and Kilmarnock.
