TheNew Firm is the term used, hailing from the 1980s, to describe the rivalry betweenScottishfootball clubsAberdeen andDundee United. Both clubs are located on the east coast of Scotland, in the third and fourth most populous cities respectively.

Although not traditionally aderby, with 65 miles separating both teams, the fixture was seen as a North-east of Scotland derby between the two most successful teams in Scotland outside ofthe Old Firm during the 1980s. Dundee United also have a moretraditional rivalry with their close neighboursDundee.

History

[edit]

The term originated in the 1980s, when both clubs challenged theOld Firm for domestic trophies.[1] The term was used byEvening Times andThe Glasgow Herald.[2][3]

The Old Firm have more often than not been the dominant force in Scottish Football, however throughout the 1980s both Aberdeen and Dundee United were more than a match for them, regularly beating them home and away and winning many of the trophies on offer.

Aberdeen were to win theScottish Premier Division three times, theScottish Cup four times, the Scottish League Cup twice, theEuropean Cup Winners' Cup and theEuropean Super Cup, all within the 1980s. In this same period, Dundee United won theScottish Premier Division once and theScottish League Cup twice, as well as reaching the Scottish Cup final four times, the1987 UEFA Cup Final, and the semi-final of the1983–84 European Cup. Not only were the Old Firm not dominating the title race, but for three seasons in a row, 1983 through to 1985, the league title went to either Aberdeen or Dundee United, meaning for the first time two other teams were dominating Scottish Football.

Both sides' success was limited as they entered the 1990s, with Aberdeen winning both cups in1989–90, reaching both finals in1992–93, as well as almost winningthe league in 1991, while Dundee United were Scottish Cupfinalists in 1991 and finallywinners in 1994. However, in the1994–95 season both sides fought relegation (with United going down), and although Aberdeen won the Scottish League Cup in1995 and Dundee United the Scottish Cup again in2010, neither side has managed to be a consistent force for Rangers and Celtic to reckon with, and Aberdeen's league success in1984–85 is the last time a non-Old Firm club won the Scottish league title.

Since 2010 however, the sides have seen a divergence in fortunes, as Aberdeen capitalised on Rangers' implosion to win the Scottish League Cup in2014 and finish runners-up behind Celtic for four years running between2014–15 and2017–18 (losing three cup finals to the same club in that period), while Dundee United were relegated from the top flight in2016 having lost the2014 Scottish Cup Final to alocal rival,St Johnstone.

Domestic head-to-head

[edit]

In domestic head-to-head matches, the teams have played each other 254 times, Aberdeen winning 101 compared to United's 82.[4] Aberdeen have won more league andScottish Cup matches while United have won moreLeague Cup matches between the two.

Given their mutual success particularly in the 1980s, it is perhaps surprising that the only major final featuring both clubs is the1979–80 Scottish League Cup Final, won by Dundee United in a replay atDens Park after a draw in Glasgow.
