By Robert Alexander on 2012-02-21 10:50:07
DUNDEE, UK - An important battle for top six places at Tannadice sees Dundee United take on a Kilmarnock side just a point above them in the table on Tuesday night. The Arabs are quoted at best odds of 19/20 (bet £20 to make £19 profit) with Sportingbet to win the match and jump into the top six, whilst Killie can be backed at best odds of 100/30 at BetVictor to claim all three points and consolidate their top six spot. The draw is a top priced 12/5 chance with bet365 and Ladbrokes among others.
The two matches between the sides already this season have ended 1-1 and with both sides looking evenly matched that result would not be a surprise. As the split approaches all sides with a chance of finishing in the top half and avoiding relegation step up their game and try to accumulate as many points as possible. With that in mind, the match on Tuesday takes on extra significance for the two sides as they could move into pole position for the last spot in the top half. Neither side has any fresh injury worries going into this match although Gary Kenneth remains a doubt for Dundee United, whilst striker Dieter van Tornhout returns to the Kilmarnock squad after missing the win at Ibrox through suspension.
In the over/under betting the bookmakers have set the line at over/under 2.5 goals and over is a top priced 8/7 shot at Ladbrokes, whilst under can be backed at best odds of 5/6 with Stan James.
Dundee United striker Jon Daly is favourite to open the scoring at best odds of 5/1 at bet365, whilst Johnny Russell is top priced at 6/1 with the same bookmaker as well as Ladbrokes and Paddy Power. Kilmarnock's Irish striker Paul Heffernan has proved to be a good signing this season and he can be backed at best odds of 8/1 at Paddy Power to score the opener.
The home side are top priced at 21/10 with William Hill to be winning the match at the end of both halves, whilst a win for the home side after a draw at the break is quoted at best odds of 4/1 at Coral and Boylesports. Kilmarnock/Kilmarnock is a stand out 15/2 shot with Betinternet, with draw/Killie top priced at 9/1 with bet365. The previous two matches between the sides have ended draw/draw and that outcome can be backed at best odds of 5/1 with Betinternet.
