Striker back for derby

Dundee UtdIrish striker Roy O'Donovan is back from suspension for United's derby clash with Aberdeen at Tannadice.

Defender Paul Dixon has recovered from a calf injury, but striker Jon Daly remains sidelined for United.

Boss Craig Levein said: "We've got decent draws against both Old Firm teams this season, so I think we're getting better.

"But Aberdeen is a different challenge and different pressure, and they're arguably the form team in the SPL.

"Our supporters expect us to win this match at home, and we'll give it a real go.

"The atmosphere will be good and hopefully it'll be a smashing match."
