History of the Queen of the South v Dundee fixture

Dundee face a trip to Queen of the South at Palmerston Park on Wednesday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 34 games played, The Dee have recorded 8 wins, and Queen o.t.S. have come away with 17 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2007, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2 - 2 draw in a Scottish Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Queen of the South's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Doonhamers have scored 7, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Dundee's away form is none too clever either, with 3 victories and just 1 loss from the last six. The The Dee's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 8 goals for and 6 against.

Queen o.t.S. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 17 points from 17 matches. Dundee are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 37 points from 17 games.
