Arabs Homing In

Apr 20 2008

DUNDEE UNITED'S formidable home form, combined with the poor away record of Hibs, makes Craig Levein's men worthy favourites to win at 6/5 with Partybets as the battle for third place takes centre stage today.

Hibees (11/5, Sportingbet) would probably settle for a draw at Tannadice, a result chalked up by Betfred at 9/4, considering they have won just once on the road since November.

Before holding Rangers at home last time out, United beat Euro rivals Motherwell 2-0 and could reward punters backing them at 9/1 (Blue Square) to repeat that scoreline today.

They can lead travel-sick Hibs at the interval and full-time (5/2, Coral.co.uk) while a win by at least two goals (16/5) also appeals.

VCBet's 6/1 for Noel Hunt is the value first scorer punt.
