★ OUR PICK
Both Teams to Score
Both attacks have been productive and both defences leaky — both teams to score carries the edge.
BTTS

BEST ODDS
Our pick: Bookmakers offer average 1.49 (implied 67.0%) for Both Teams to Score. Our experts calculate a 69.5% probability (an expert ratio of 1.44). We chose this bet because our experts rate it more likely than the bookmaker price implies (69.5% vs 67.0%), driven by both attacks scoring freely while both defences look leaky. That edge makes it our most confident selection for this match.

Match Preview

The model favours ST Mirren to win against Dundee Utd, projecting a scoreline of 2-1. Currently sitting in third place, ST Mirren has enjoyed a solid start to the season with three wins, one draw, and one loss from their five matches. They have scored eight goals while conceding five, resulting in a positive goal difference of three. Their ability to find the net, combined with a resilient defence, positions them well for this match. In contrast, Dundee Utd finds themselves in ninth place, having played six matches with only one win to their name. Their record of one win, two draws, and three losses reflects a challenging start, with six goals scored but eleven conceded, leading to a negative goal difference of five. This struggle to maintain defensive stability has hindered their ability to secure points consistently. The model gives ST Mirren a 40.9% chance of winning, while Dundee Utd's win probability stands at 32.2%, and a draw is estimated at 26.9%. One factor to consider is that if Dundee Utd can improve their defensive performance, they might pose a greater threat than their current form suggests. For a deeper understanding of our prediction, please refer to the "How We Reached This Prediction" section, where our in-house model analyses expected goals and actual results throughout the season.

The Daily Punt Analysis Team

Data-driven football predictions and betting tips

This forecast was built by the The Daily Punt Analysis Team using our in-house statistical model. We feed the model two layers of data for every fixture: each team's recent expected goals (xG and xGA) and their actual goals scored and conceded, split by home and away venue. The numbers run through a Poisson distribution that produces a probability for every possible scoreline, which we then convert into fair odds for the 1X2, correct score, BTTS, and over/under markets.

Before publishing, we cross-check our fair odds against the prices the major bookmakers are offering. Where a bookmaker is paying out more than our model says is mathematically fair, we flag that market as a value bet on this page.
