Dundee must rediscover scoring touch says Vinny
presence at set-pieces may be something they can capitalise on.
“We were very good at Tynecastle, hitting the woodwork twice from set-pieces and Yordi (Teijsse) also hitting the post from open play.
“We know we have players who attack the ball very well and that is something we will focus on.”
It has been a frustrating time for Vincent, who has been in and out of the team in recent weeks due to illness.
He is philosophical in his outlook, though, and is delighted to regain his spot in the starting XI.
“In hindsight, I shouldn’t have played in the Killie game as I was unwell but I wanted to give it a go.
“For the Ross County game, the gaffer felt I should recover fully from the bug, so he started young Jesse (Curran), who did well.
“I fully understood (why he’d been left out) but I came in and did well against Celtic, so I’m happy.”
The current home form has been turned around after not having won there this season until the Motherwell game at the start of October.
At that point, the team agreed they must make it more difficult for opposing teams when they come to Dens.
It has certainly worked with two wins and a draw in the last three home games. This is something Vincent believes is vital if they are to push themselves up the league.
“We said on our poor run we needed to turn Dens into a difficult place to come.
“You need to take maximum points at home and we’ll be going for that tomorrow when we play Hearts.
“Everyone is confident we can do that after the performance last week against Celtic.”
