Dees and Hibs both in good form
Dundee FC have recovered from a 3-0 defeat to Aberdeen in the League Cup last time out to beat the same opponents 2-0 at home in Premiership 2026/2027 last weekend and follow that up with a 2-0 win over Dundee United yesterday.
Hibs have been solid if unremarkable so far this season, with back-to-back 0-0 draws in UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 against FK Shkendija 79 and KAA Gent. However, a 1-0 win over Partick Thistle in the League Cup got them over the line and they have won their only away game this season, suggesting they travel well.
Hibs are the fancy favourites
Hibs are the slight favourites at 6/5 for this game, but Dundee FC's odds of 2/1 make them dangerous outsiders for this one. The draw is 23/10 and looks the most likely outcome based on the teams' away and home records respectively.
Dundee have won their last 2 home games so the Dark Blues come into this one with real momentum while Hibernian are unbeaten in 2 away matches, with 1 win and 1 draw.
Dundee FC's Drey Wright and Hibernian's Callum Wright are the top scorers for their teams with 1 goal apiece in their 3 and 1 Premiership 2026/2027 appearances respectively.
Back the draw in a cagey clash of styles
This will be a cagey game of chess between two well-organised teams. Steven Pressley has got Dundee FC playing a very organised, compact low-to-medium block with good width and wing-backs that can get forward. Hibernian boss David Gray has his side playing a flexible possession-first game, with the ability to press or sit back, quick trigger pressing movements and fast vertical transitions.
With Nathan Lowe providing the spark as a creative midfielder, Hibs have scored 7 goals in their last 5 competitive games, with Owen Elding being their other livewire with 3 goals during that run.
Dundee will look to counter attack with the ball wide through their wing-backs, which should cause problems for Hibernian as they try to control the centre of the pitch and look to get on the front foot. That clash of playstyles could cause some wild swings in momentum, but Hibs could get the advantage of a goal with the visitors scoring 2.00 goals per away match this term.
Both teams to score at 13/20 looks lively, but under 2.5 goals at 19/20 fits the bill if the midfield battle gets the better of the game.
