[5] Dundee opened their competitive season in the League Cup group stage with a bang, demolishing Bonnyrigg Rose with seven goals including a Curtis Main hat-trick.

[9] They finished off the group stage in style with another clinic against former bogey team Inverness Caledonian Thistle, thumping them for six and confirming their seeding for the second round, with Simon Murray bagging himself a hat-trick in the first 30 minutes.

[11] The following week in their home league opener, Dundee returned to Dens Park in style with a late first half blitz helping them earn a comfortable win over Heart of Midlothian.

[14] Less than 24 hours after losing their star player, Luke McCowan, at the transfer window deadline to Celtic,[15] Dundee took on St Mirren in their last match before the international break, in which the Dee came back twice to earn a point at Dens and stay unbeaten.

[19] Dundee followed up their miserable September in familiar fashion, where a good performance despite an unjust Mo Sylla red card in the first half left them defending a slender lead over winless Kilmarnock.

[20] After a much needed international break, Dundee returned with a new line-up and a much more solid defensive performance away to Motherwell where they held onto a single goal victory to end their horrible streak of form and gain their first league clean sheet of the season.

[21] Any attempt to build off of the previous week's result however was for nought, as despite taking an early lead against St Johnstone, Dundee would play poorly and suffer yet another collapse and defeat in stoppage time to lose their third consecutive home game.

[22] Dundee would end another disappointing month with the toughest of fixtures, holding off Celtic in Glasgow for an hour before an expected defeat which dropped the Dee down to 10th place.

[27] The Dee continued their uptick in form with another impressive display at Dens, where a scoring whirlwind helped seal a 4–1 win over Motherwell, lifting Dundee up to 5th place and marking the first time since April 2002 that they had won three consecutive home games in the top tier.

[31] The Dee managed to halt the bad form in their last game of 2024, fighting back against two early injuries with a makeshift defence to earn a 1–2 away win against an in-form St Mirren through a double from captain Simon Murray.

[39] Things did not get any better in the midweek, as their previously postponed trip to face Celtic ended with the same humiliating scoreline, the first time since 2000 that Dundee (or any top division Scottish side) had conceded at least 6 goals in two consecutive games.
