CURRENT FORM
Dundee United currently occupy bottom spot in the league table after enduring a difficult opening to the season.
The Tangerines are without a win in their first six games of the league campaign, although they were able to halt their five-match losing run in all competitions with a goalless draw away to Motherwell last time out.
MANAGER
Liam Fox is currently in interim charge of United on an interim basis following the departure of Jack Ross as manager last month.
Fox, who enjoyed a lengthy spell with Livingston during his playing career, presided over last weekend’s 0-0 draw at Fir Park where Kevin Van Veen missed a penalty for Motherwell in the first half.
STYLE OF PLAY
After starting the campaign playing in a 4-3-3 formation, United have recently switched to a back five amid their difficult run of form.
Charlie Mulgrew, Ross Graham and Ryan Edwards typically marshal the backline, while Tony Watt has been joined upfront by summer signing Steven Fletcher.
KEY PLAYER
After spending last season on loan at Tannadice, it was somewhat of a coup that Dundee United secured the services of midfielder Dylan Levitt on a permanent deal.
Having come through the youth ranks at Manchester United, the Welsh international scored six goals for United last term, including several stunning strikes from distance, as they sealed European qualification.
PREVIOUS MEETINGS
Rangers have won each of their last four meetings with Dundee United at Ibrox since the Tayside club returned to the top-flight in 2020.
Among those home victories have been a 4-0 and 4-1 scoreline during the Light Blues’ title-winning campaign in 2020/21, while the side also ran out 2-0 winners over United in Govan in the penultimate home fixture of last season.
