Can Inverness improve on their awful away record to maintain their top flight status? They’re four points adrift at the bottom, and they come in to this game at Inverness in need of a result to have any chance of keeping their survival hopes alive. However, they travel to Dundee with just one win on the road this term.

The hosts look to be safe from the relegation play-off, and they’re nine points above Inverness. They head in to this game on the back of a run which has taken them to safety in three results. New manager Grant McCann has led his charges to seven points from a possible nine, putting them on course for another campaign at this level.

Both sides come here with poor defensive records, with Dundee conceding in 83% of their home games. Inverness have let in a goal in 94% of their away trips, so there should be goals here. In fact, 83% of the home side’s matches at this ground have seen over 1.5 goals. Caley Thistle have seen at least two goals scored in 89% of their away trips, so a few goals seem likely.

Despite those numbers, neither of these two are especially high scoring. Just 44% of Dundee’s home matches have seen three goals or more. In addition, 83% of their matches have seen three goals or fewer. The visitors are in a similar boat, with 78% of their games on the road seeing three goals or fewer. This isn’t likely to be a classic.

A huge chunk of their games have fallen in a very narrow bracket, with 67% of Dundee’s home matches seeing either two or three goals scored. Inverness have seen the same number of their away games finish with two or three goals, so we think two or three goals to be scored in this match is brilliantly priced at evens with bet365.

1-1 Draw
