Ross County | Preview

This weekend, we travel to the Highlands to face Ross County. The kick-off on Saturday is 3pm.

It will be the first time the teams have met at the Global Energy Stadium since 2018 when Simon Murray’s goal gave Dundee a 1-0 victory.

The sides met earlier this season at the Kilmac Stadium with County running out winners.

They currently sit bottom of the cinch Premiership table with only one other victory to their league campaign coming against Hibernian last month.

Their match last Saturday away to St. Johnstone was called on late in the day. A 0-0 draw with St. Mirren on the 1st of the month was their last action.

Team News 

Max Anderson returns to the squad after missing out at Ibrox last weekend. Lee Ashcroft, Shaun Byrne, and Cillian Sheridan remain long-term injuries.

Stats | Dee Archive

Last time around, Ross County inflicted our heaviest ever defeat against the Highland side with a rampant 5-0 victory at Dens Park for the Staggies.

We make the long trip up to Dingwall for our 21st league appearance away to County in the hope of avenging this loss and creating a sizable gap between both the clubs.

Away from home, we are even-steven with 7 wins and 7 defeats.

Our most notable victory in the Highlands is also our biggest ever win with a 3-0 scoreline back in November 2010.

Leigh Griffiths was our hero that day with two goals with Nicky Riley scoring the other.

Griffiths two goals made him (at that point) the second only player, after Dyron Daal, to score two goals in one match against County.

If Griffiths is able to find the net in this match, he will equal Rory Loy as the top goalscorer in this tie with five goals apiece.
