Recent respective form guides

Ayr United are not in the best of form at home, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats in their last six. While Honest Men have scored 6, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

The away form of Dundee however, is much more impressive, unbeaten in their last six, consisting of three wins and three draws. Just 7 goals have scored in these games, though to be fair only a measly 3 have been let in at the wrong end.

Ayr Utd. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 12 points from 18 matches. Dundee are leading the way in the Irn Bru Scottish Division One, with their 23 games giving them a return of 44 points.
