Belfast Maintain Challenge Cup Record

The visitors had not won a Challenge Cup game this season prior to facing the hosts.

Their recent results include a 3-2 win against Glasgow in the Challenge Cup and a 6-3 victory over Ambrì-Piotta in a friendly. Dundee, conversely, have lost four of their last five games, scoring 11 goals and conceding 16. Their Challenge Cup campaign has seen defeat to Fife 4-1 at home before travelling to Belfast.
