It feels just like yesterday when Dundee United snatched a dramatic late victory at Dens to kick off 2025 with a bang.

Fast forward a couple of weeks and the city rivals square up once again at the same venue, only this time there's a place in the Scottish Cup fifth round at stake. The Tangerines have exceeded all expectations in their first season back in the top-flight, with Jim Goodwin leading the Championship winners to third in the Premiership and on course for a return to Europe.

Dundee also have aspirations to finish in the top-six for the second year in a row, and after a sticky first-half of the campaign, Tony Docherty's injury-ravaged team have bounced back from their derby defeat on January 2 in spectacular fashion. The Dees ran out comfortable winners at rock-bottom St Johnstone, before nabbing deserved points off Rangers and Celtic, and they can perhaps consider themselves unlucky not to have recorded back-to-back wins against the Old Firm.

Now, the bitter rivals will lock horns once again in one of Scotland's showpiece fixtures. The Dundee derby always throws up plenty of goals and drama, and it's set to be a box-office night of action in the City of Discovery. Here, Record Sport tells you everything you need to know.
