ST Johnstone vs Dundee Utd preview

In the match between ST Johnstone and Dundee Utd, the 1X2 probabilities show ST Johnstone at 43% to win, while Dundee Utd stands at 30%. The most likely scoreline is 1-0, with a 12% chance according to our model. ST Johnstone has an expected goals figure of 1.53, which is significantly higher than Dundee Utd's 0.90.

However, there are factors that could change this outcome. Both teams to score has a probability of 48%, indicating a near-equal chance that both sides could find the net. Additionally, ST Johnstone's recent form shows inconsistency with D-L-W-D-L-L, while Dundee Utd has a better recent record of W-W-D-L-W-L. This could impact the match dynamics and result.
