United host rock-bottom Livingston ahead of their bottom-six campaign – and Jim Goodwin has promised attacking football.
We posit how the Tangerines can take the handbrake off against opposition lower in the table – something Goodwin’s charges have struggled with, especially at Tannadice.
Could we see a debut for goalkeeper Ruairidh Adams, who might or might not be slightly shorter than your average keeper, during the run-in following injury to Ashley Maynard-Brewer?
The likes of Owen Stirton, Sam Cleall-Harding and Scott Constable could also be pushing for action.
Alan has a Zac Sapsford prediction, while the panel pay tribute to newly retired ex-United ace Barry Douglas.
Across the road, Dundee travel to Rugby Park knowing one simple truth: win and Premiership safety is all-but secured.
However, it’ll be a testing task against a side boasting four wins from their last five matches – and showing real signs of life under ex-Dens Park boss Neil McCann.
We discuss how Steven Pressley will cope with the possible absence of Tony Yogane, the definite absence of Ryan Astley and ponder whether scourge of Killie, Ash Hay, should get the nod ahead of Simon Murray.
There’s also talk of what price tag Luke Graham should command and, with Rangers’ interest in the player increasingly obvious, where his future may lie.
This weekend’s action is previewed by The Courier head of sport Sean Hamilton, Dundee United writer Alan Temple and ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan.

For the first time this season, Celtic claimed victory in the City of Discovery – but they were made to work for it.
Did the Dark Blues ‘have Celtic exactly where they wanted them’? If so, how did the points end up back in Glasgow?
We spotlight an eventful afternoon for Ryan Astley, praise Jon McCracken’s interventions and ask whether the Dee are getting enough attacking impetus from out-with the wide areas.
A day earlier, United succumbed to defeat against Rangers.
Defensive deficiencies were again on show as the Gers claimed a 4-2 triumph, with Ashley Maynard-Brewer making a costly error before suffering a dislocated shoulder – what does the future hold for him?
A similar question can be asked regarding Amar Fatah, who is increasingly establishing himself as one of the most dangerous wide players in the Scottish Premiership.
And why don’t midfielders make tactical fouls anymore?!
This weekend’s action is discussed by Dundee United writer Alan Temple, DFC writer George Cran and ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan.

It’s the City of Discovery v Glasgow again this weekend as oor twa teams face Rangers and Celtic.
Dundee United face a testing trip to Ibrox – can they shock the Gers and derail their title bid?
They will be without Kristijan Trapanovski after news of his knee injury needing surgery. He’s out of contract this summer – will United keep him?
The same question goes for goalie Ashley Maynard-Brewer – will he stick around?
Dundee, meanwhile, have to wait an extra 24 hours for their own date with one of the Old Firm.
Celtic come to Dens smarting from their loss at Tannadice a fortnight previous – can the Dark Blues pull off a historic victory?
And will they look to keep Clark Robertson beyond this summer?

Celtic don’t like our wee street, do they?
Three times they’ve rocked up in the City of Discovery this season and three times they’ve been beaten.
Dundee United registered their first back-to-back home wins over the Hoops since 1991.
How did they do that? And who has been a game-changing signing?
Dundee, meanwhile, lost narrowly at table-topping Hearts.
What went wrong at Tynecastle and is Steven Pressley right that other teams are showing his jobby outfit more respect?
Alan can’t join in today but has kindly sent in his thoughts on Dundee United’s impressive win over Celtic.
So tuning in from home is host Sean Hamilton alongside Courier Sport writer George Cran and former Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
Should Jon McCracken feel aggrieved about not getting a Scotland call ahead of Liam Kelly – as the guys talk “vibes”.
What does the future hold for Fin Robertson at Dens Park, and what sort of player will he eventually emerge as?
And we look ahead to a testing visit to the league leaders, Hearts, and point out some weaknesses that have emerged in the Jambos’ armour.
Across the road, it’s been a busy week of transfer news.
Lachlan Rose is set to arrive on a free transfer from Newcastle Jets, following fellow A-League standout Jesse Randall.
Formerly a young tennis prospect, what will Rose serve up at Tannadice?
We chew over the Craig Sibbald-to-Falkirk signing pictures furore, and tip one Terrors standout to be in contention for PFA Scotland young player of the year.
And how can United beat Celtic?

Sunday’s Dundee derby brought drama never seen before in this famous fixture.
Dundee United dominated the entire 90 minutes – but somehow contrived to give up two goals and two points in the final two minutes of stoppage time.
What belief do Dundee get from this and how can United pick themselves up.
Plus Bear is quizzed on video evidence of him leaving Dens Park early.
And there’s plenty of chat about Amar Fatah, Jon McCracken and the late, great Gordon Wallace.

It’s a mixed bag for Twa Teams this week.
And we’re low on bodies, too.
First up is Dundee’s excellent win over Motherwell at Dens Park – who stood out and are the Dark Blues safe from relegation now?
Then there’s United’s night to forget at Falkirk on Friday – who keeps carrying the team and what does it mean for Jim Goodwin?

It’s a huge week for Dundee United and they’ve got off to a fine start with Tuesday’s victory over St Mirren.
We look back at the 2-1 victory, some strange, strange goals and how the Tangerines are shaping up to face Falkirk in the Scottish Cup quarter-final on Friday.
Two men are suspended but who will be key?
Dundee are out of the cup but have a crucial contest of their own as they welcome high-flying Motherwell to Dens Park.
Can the Dark Blues upset the odds? And do they deserve to have more points on the board?
Just three talking heads this week as Courier Sport writers George Cran and Alan Temple are joined by ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
Dundee played out a 3-3 thriller against Hibernian at Dens Park.
The guys chew over a breathless contest, spotlighting the likes of Simon Murray, Tony Yogane and Luke Graham.
However, it was Cam Congreve who had the final word with a magnificent late leveller – and he wants even more.
At United, all the talk is about Johnny Russell after Courier Sport broke the story of his impending return to Tannadice (barring any late hitches) on Monday morning.
We discuss why Russell, aged 35, could still prove to be an inspired signing for the Terrors.
On the pitch, we look back on defeat at Motherwell – from Vicko Sevelj being caught on the grainy cameras of Fir Park to the intriguing squad rotation.
And what is an acceptable result against St Mirren on Tuesday, given the looming Scottish Cup quarter-final against Falkirk?
Alan Temple and George Cran, The Courier’s Dundee United and Dundee correspondents, respectively, are joined by ex-Evening Telegraph sports editor Graeme Finnan this fine Monday. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
There’s no rest for Dundee United in the most hectic portion of the campaign.
The team pick the bones out of a turgid game against Aberdeen at Tannadice – and analyse why the surface is in such a state, and what comes next for it.
We discuss the relationship between the United hierarchy and the Ultras following statement and counter-statement this week, before looking ahead to an onerous challenge at Fir Park.
Across the road, Steven Pressley reckons Ethan Hamilton should be in the conversation for Scotland.
Is he right? And how many other Ethan Hamiltons are waiting to be unearthed south of the border?
Pressley has plenty of options following a worthwhile bounce game in midweek, while Joe Westley could be back to face Hibs.
The Courier head of sport Sean Hamilton is in the hot-seat, joined by United correspondent Alan Temple and former Evening Telegraph sports editor Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
Dundee are celebrating a first Pittodrie win against Aberdeen in 22 years.
“Not bad for a jobby team,” to paraphrase Steven Pressley.
We pick the bones out of a thriller in the Granite City as Ethan Hamilton’s burgeoning reputation continues to grow. Will summer suitors start to take notice of the in-form midfielder?
And the Dark Blues are tipped for a push to finish as top of the bottom-six after the split.
At Tannadice, Dundee United endured yet more last-minute pain as Marley Watkins rescued a 1-1 draw for Kilmarnock.
Despite the Tangerines turning in a largely fine display and grabbing the lead through an Amar Fatah wondergoal, it is now TWENTY Premiership points dropped from winning positions.
Who is to blame for handing the initiative to the visitors after a game in which United had complete control prior to the opener?
And we discuss Emmanuel Agyei’s debut and Tuesday’s clash with “in flux” Aberdeen.
It’s a two-man band this Monday as Alan Temple is joined by former Evening Telegraph sports editor Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
The flurry of fixtures for Dundee United is well under way – two wins from two has seen things go to plan.
But there have been bumps in the road including a controversial red card for Iurie Iovu against The Spartans – was it a sending off? And should United have appealed?
Plus what to expect from Kilmarnock on Saturday.
Meanwhile, it’s been quieter for Dundee but interest in star defender Luke Graham continues to bubble away – the guys discuss the latest on that front.
And look ahead to a bogey fixture against Aberdeen.

Dundee United ended their four-game losing run in the Premiership in dramatic fashion with a 3-2 victory over 10-man Falkirk.
What does the winning goal mean for United’s forgotten man Julius Eskesen?
We discuss the contentious red card shown to Liam Henderson and the performance of Craig Sibbald; a man who is out of contract in the summer and will have no shortage of suitors.
And there’s no rest for the wicked, with a Scottish Cup showdown against The Spartans up next.
Across the road, Simon Murray ended his 18-game goalless streak with a deadly double against Livingston.
However, the Dark Blues somehow endeavoured to throw away their 2-0 advantage against rock-bottom Lions. Again.
We pick the bones out of a bonkers first half at Dens and ask: what was Jon McCracken thinking?
And does the form of Kilmarnock – even after their agonising defeat against Celtic – mean Dundee are still looking over their shoulders ahead of a testing run of games?
In place for this Monday edition are Courier Sport’s Dundee United writer Alan Temple, Dundee FC writer George Cran and former Evening Telegraph sports editor Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
Another Premiership fixture, another blank drawn for Dundee. Four on the spin.
But the 1-0 defeat at Falkirk for the goal-shy Dee was a particularly galling one, with Yan Dhanda missing a 96th minute penalty. How does Steven Pressley get them firing?
Meanwhile, Pressley reckons the Dark Blues are still deep in the relegation scrap. Is he right?
Another postponement for Dundee United. What next? And will the SPFL start to take interest in the repeated call-offs?
On the pitch, Nikolaj Moller is offski after just six months. We take a proper look and the pros and cons of United’s recruitment process.
With new arrival Emmanuel Agyei making his mark, will he make his debut at Falkirk – as United seek to do better against the Bairns than Dundee.
Also, why the bottom six may not be ALL bad for clubs on both sides of the street.
Back in our Meadowside studio are Courier Sport writer Alan Temple, former Evening Telegraph sports editor Graeme Finnan and The Courier’s head of sport Sean Hamilton. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
Brutal stuff for Dundee at Celtic but what was it like at Parkhead?
And who stood out?
There’s also a massive game to come on Wednesday at Falkirk.
Will United be playing that night too? Game off on Saturday and weather doesn’t look promising.
What does that all mean for the Tangerines season?
Tuning in from home are Courier Sport writers Alan Temple and George Cran alongside former Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
im Goodwin was furious after seeing his Dundee United side throw away a lead late on at Hibs.
What does that mean for his future at Tannadice? And what is going wrong for the Tangerines?
Next up is a must-win cup tie against lower league The Spartans – how important a game is that?
Dundee had no match after their Motherwell clash was postponed.
What does that mean for the weekend trip to Celtic in the Scottish Cup?
And what will the new boys bring?

Hosting in the studio is Sean Hamilton as he quizzes Alan Temple, George Cran and Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
Only one game to cover this week and the result didn’t go Dundee’s way.
But why does the 3-0 defeat at Rangers not tell the whole story?
We have one week left of the transfer window and Dundee need to do some business – centre-backs are thin on the ground after two key injuries.
So what does that mean for Luke Graham this month?
After a weekend off thanks to Dundee United’s postponement, Alan Temple is hosting alongside Courier Sport’s Dundee FC writer George Cran and ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
