Hearts vs Dundee FC Prediction: Both teams are expected to find the back of the net

The Scottish Premiership game between Hearts and Dundee FC will take place at Tynecastle Stadium. In their last meeting, Dundee FC secured maximum points. How will Hearts approach this game as favourites?

Hearts

Hearts last league game was against Aberdeen, and they picked a point. In a game that ended 1-1, Hearts needed only a Nicky Devlin own goal to avoid a defeat. However, this team has a winless run of five games, with just one win in eight matches. In that run, Hearts lost to Kilmarnock, Heidenheim, Rangers, Celtic, and Cercle Brugge while picking up a win over St Johnstone. Hearts have 10 points from 15 matches this season, leaving them seated at the bottom of the standings. 

Dundee FC

Dundee FC played Motherwell the previous time out and pulled off a 4-1 win. In that game, Dundee FC were held to a 1-1 draw at halftime, with Oluwaseun Adewumi's goal not enough to see them take the lead into the second half. However, Scott Tiffoney's strike in the 60th minute restored their lead before Llyall Cameron's brace. Heading into this game, Dundee FC have three wins in their last five encounters, one loss and drawn one. This season, Dundee FC have 19 points from 15 matches, leaving them seated 5th spot. 

Expert Betting Tips

Hearts are favourites in this game, but I do not see them have an easy job. While Dundee FC are coming off a run of improved performances, I expect them to be a threat on both ends of the field. The two teams have been poor defensively, and this should be another offensive game in which both teams score. However, I feel Hearts will not have a win here, given their poor play. Yet, Dundee FC look very decent, and despite being on the road, a 1-1 draw is a good option.
