| . Tannadice is one of the more pleasant away grounds to visit. Pars supporters are accommodated in the South West of the stadium and there is always a good atmosphere. United have come out on top in more than half the 27 meetings although the Fifers have won three of their last five visits there. . |

. That started with the famous First Division `title decider` in 1996, and was followed with similar emotion when Jim Leishman`s side secured their SPL status at the same ground in 2005. Then at the end of last season a cracking Freddie Daquin goal gave Dunfermline hopes (false as it turned out) that they could finish ninth in the league. Mark Burchill`s penalty miss at Tannadice earlier this season meant that the Pars were denied their first away win of the season but what better time than this Saturday to remedy that? |
