Recent respective form guides

Dundee United will be hoping to improve on their poor home form, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While The Terrors have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

Inverness CT's away form is none too clever either, with an unbeaten run in the last six, four of them victories. Just 7 goals have scored in these games, though to be fair only a measly 1 have been let in at the wrong end.

Dundee Utd. see themselves just below half way in the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier, showing a record of 4 points from their 4 games played so far, Inverness CT's 7 points from 4 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 5th position.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Nothing seems to be going right for the The Terrors at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Caley Thistle come away with an easy victory. Away win

Dundee Utd. Failed to win in previous 6 home matches.
Inverness CT Undefeated in last 8 away games.
4 games since last defeat.
