History of the Dundee United v Rangers fixture

Dundee Utd. prepare to entertain Rangers at Tannadice Park on Sunday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 38 of the 79 previous games, with the The Terrors winning just 18.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Tannadice Park was less than a year ago, in November 2006, the The Terrors carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a Scottish Premier match.
