Recent respective form guides

Dundee United's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Tangerines have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Hibernian's away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. While the Hibees have hit 9 goals, 14 have hit the back of the wrong net.
