Dundee

WWDDLL ⚖

Dundee will be wanting a better result here following a 3-0 League Cup loss in their previous game against Rangers.

Cyriel Dessers (18', 66') and James Tavernier (50') scored for Rangers.

Matches with Dundee have tended to be entertaining encounters of late with a lot of goalmouth action being a common characteristic. Over their past six clashes alone, the sum of 24 goals have flown in for both sides combined (at an average of 4 goals per game) with 13 of those coming from Dundee.

Taking a look at their past results, Dundee:

• have not lost a league tie with Aberdeen in their last 3 games.
• are unbeaten in their previous 3 league matches at home.

Aberdeen

WWWWWW ✅

Aberdeen will go into the meeting following on from a 4-0 League Cup win over Spartans in their last fixture.

For Aberdeen, the goals were scored by Pape Habib Guèye (14'), Kevin Nisbet (44'), Leighton Clarkson (46') and Ester Sokler (72').

Over the course of their previous half-dozen clashes, Aberdeen have bagged a total of 13 goals. Aberdeen have also not failed to score on each one of those occasions. During those fixtures, they’ve seen 2 goals go against them. That kind of trend isn’t assured to follow through into this next game, though.

Looking at their past form shows that Aberdeen:

• have not beaten Dundee when they've played them away from home in the last 3 league games.
• are undefeated in their previous 6 league matches away from home.

ℹ️ Team News: Dundee

In our view, The Dark Blues should make use of the 4-3-3 system in the match featuring Jon McCracken, Ethan Ingram, J. Antonio Portales, Billy Koumetio, Ziyad Larkeche, Josh Mulligan, Mohamad Sylla, Lyall Cameron, Seb Palmer-Houlden, Simon Murray and Scott Tiffoney.

🗞️ Team News: Aberdeen

Out of a mainly available group, there is only the one fitness worry for the Aberdeen gaffer Jimmy Thelin to contend with. Dante Polvara (Muscle tear) won’t be playing here.

From our viewpoint, The Dons could decide to play in a 4-2-3-1 system, starting Dimitar Mitov, Nicky Devlin, Slobodan Rubezic, Gavin Molloy, Jack Mackenzie, Ante Palaversa, Sivert Nilsen, Topi Keskinen, Pape Habib Gueye, Jamie McGrath and Kevin Nisbet.

✨ Prediction

When taking all factors into account, Aberdeen and Dundee should both be able to find the back of the net here although it’s difficult to select a clear winner.

A draw looks like a realistic possibility, but we’ll see what happens. That’s why we have predicted a very close game with a 1-1 draw at the conclusion of the game.
