Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Dundee United to win and both teams to score13/5Dundee United showed their attacking capability with a 4-0 thumping of Kilmarnock on the road, and they face a Falkirk side still waiting for its first win of the Premiership season. Both teams to score has appeal given the recent history between them, the last two meetings producing 3-2 and 2-2 scorelines. Falkirk have shown they can find the net too, scoring against both Celtic and Rangers already this term. With United dangerous going forward at Tannadice and Falkirk capable of a goal, a home win with both sides on the scoresheet makes for a tempting combination.
Lachlan Rose to score anytime and Zac Sapsford over 1.5 shots185/100Lachlan Rose has already opened his account for Dundee United this season and offers a genuine goal threat from the forward line, so he rates as a live anytime pick against a Falkirk defence that has conceded in three of its four league games. Zac Sapsford provides the second leg, a regular starter up top who has also scored this term and gets himself into shooting positions, which makes over 1.5 shots a reasonable ask for the striker. With United carrying plenty of attacking intent at Tannadice and Falkirk there to be got at, both parts of this double stand up well.
