St Johnstone vs Dundee 07.11.2026: Prediction, Betting Tips and Match Preview

The fixture is set for 7 November 2026, when St Johnstone welcome Dundee. The two sides arrive with contrasting recent results: the hosts have drawn more often, while the visitors have won three of their last five. The most recent head-to-head ended 1:1, which gives the upcoming meeting a strong case for being a tight, closely fought contest.

St Johnstone: Home Solidity, Variable Cutting Edge

St Johnstone’s last five matches produced one win, three draws and one defeat. They scored six goals and conceded nine. After beating Aberdeen, their recent run included a heavy loss to Rangers and two 2:2 draws. At home, in the fixtures available, they have not lost: they drew 2:2 with Motherwell and 1:1 with Dundee United.

Their attacking numbers have swung sharply from game to game. Against Motherwell they registered 17 shots and nine on target, but against Kilmarnock they managed only two shots. Across the five matches their total xG was 5.17 while they scored six goals, so their finishing was slightly above the quality of the chances created. At the other end, their xGA reached 9.68 and they conceded nine, which is close to the quality of the opportunities allowed. St Johnstone retain the ability to score at home, but their defence regularly gives up goal-scoring chances.

Dundee: Better Results and a Scoring Habit

Dundee look stronger by results: three wins, one draw and one defeat in their last five. They scored 10 goals and found the net in every one of those matches. Their away form has a notable pattern: a 1:2 loss to St Mirren was followed by a 2:1 win over Falkirk, and a 2:2 draw with Rangers.

Dundee had strong attacking spells: 22 shots against Falkirk, 21 against Rangers and 15 in their latest match against Kilmarnock. Their total xG was 9.61 with 10 goals scored, so their output broadly matches the chances they created. They conceded seven goals with an overall xGA of 7.46, also close to the quality of the opponents’ opportunities. Dundee win more often, score consistently and, on the road, are capable of responding to pressure from the hosts.

Statistics and Trends

• In their last five matches, St Johnstone avoided defeat four times but won only once.
• Dundee collected three wins over the same period and are on a four-match unbeaten run.
• In head-to-head meetings, the teams have drawn twice and Dundee have won three; across the five games the aggregate score is 5:8 in favour of the visitors.
• Four of the five head-to-head matches produced no more than three goals, and the last meeting on 2 September 2026 finished 1:1.
• Both teams have been scoring regularly in the current series: St Johnstone found the net in four of five, Dundee in all five.

Prediction and Bet

The opening phase should be measured, because St Johnstone at home have already shown they can hold draws against opponents with good attacks. The hosts create chances, but their performances depend heavily on finishing: in one game they can produce 17 shots, in another only two. Dundee arrive with more stable results, have scored in each of their last five and have won three of them. Their away form is not perfect, but the loss to St Mirren remains their only defeat in this stretch. The head-to-head record also gives St Johnstone no advantage: Dundee were unbeaten in four of the five meetings.

The balance of results, the visitors’ regular scoring and Dundee’s head-to-head edge make the double chance the most justified choice. The main prediction is that Dundee will not lose. A draw remains a working outcome, but the visitors’ current form gives them enough grounds to at least preserve a positive result.
