Aberdeen

LLLWLW

Aberdeen, buoyed by their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after the 0-1 Premiership triumph vs Motherwell.

In that game, Aberdeen managed 50% possession and 14 attempts on goal with 4 on target. The only player to score for Aberdeen was Leighton Clarkson (25'). For their opponents, Motherwell had 14 attempts on goal with 5 of them on target.

It has been seldom in recent times where Aberdeen haven’t conceded. The reality is that Aberdeen have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, shipping 8 goals on the way. Despite that, it remains to be seen if the trend will continue on in this game.

Leading up to this clash, Aberdeen:

• are unbeaten in the league by Ross County in their previous 5 matches.
• have not won at home in their last 6 league games. That's never good.

Ross County

LWDLDW ⚖

Ross County will go into this encounter following a 2-1 Premiership win against Hearts in their last fixture.

In that game, Ross County had 35% possession and 11 shots on goal with 3 on target. The scorer for Ross County was Simon Murray (42', 49'). Hearts got 21 attempts on goal with 6 of them on target. Yutaro Oda (91') scored for Hearts.

The numbers tell their own story, and Ross County have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 matches, seeing their opponents hit 10 goals in all. Defensively, Ross County could really do with shoring things up.

Their previous form shows that Ross County:

• are winless against Aberdeen in away games against them for the last 2 league games.
• have not won away from home in their last 13 league games. They clearly need to do something about it.

🗞️ Team News: Aberdeen

The Aberdeen manager Peter Leven doesn’t have any fitness worries whatsoever before this game owing to a fully injury-free squad available to choose from.

In all likelihood, The Dons may well make use of the 4-2-3-1 system for this game, beginning the first half with Kelle Roos, Nicky Devlin, Stefan Gartenmann, Angus MacDonald, Jack Mackenzie, Connor Barron, Graeme Shinnie, Jamie McGrath, Leighton Clarkson, Junior Hoilett and Bojan Miovski.

📋 Team News: Ross County

From a largely healthy group, there is just a single fitness issue for the Ross County gaffer Don Cowie to be concerned about. Ross Callachan (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be in action.

We are inclined to think that The Staggies appear most likely to elect for a 3-5-2 lineup with a starting lineup of George Wickens, Michee Efete, Jack Baldwin, Ryan Leak, Loick Ayina, Connor Randall, Yan Dhanda, Victor Loturi, Josh Reid, Jordan White and Simon Murray.

In this game, Aberdeen certainly have the ability to get a couple of goals in this one against Ross County, who will be up against it getting on the scoresheet.
