Dundee Utd. face a trip to Glasgow Celtic at Celtic Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The The Terrors will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 49 and win only 8 of the 77 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in May 2005, the The Bhoys carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Scottish F.A. Cup match.
