In a total of 5 of the previous 6 clashes featuring Aberdeen, at least three goals have been hit. The overall average goals scored per match during that spell is 4, with the number of goals averaged by Aberdeen working out to 2. That being said, time will tell if the trend will be replicated in this match or not.
Taking a look at their past results, Aberdeen:
- have left without a victory over St Mirren in games played away from home for the previous 8 league games. Not an away record to be proud of.
- have not been beaten in their last 8 league matches away from home. Travelling very well.
🤜🤛 Head to head
Inspecting their past head-to-head clashes going back to 01/02/2023 shows that St Mirren have won 3 of these & Aberdeen 2, with the tally of drawn matches being 1.

📰 Team News: St Mirren
We are thinking that The Buddies will possibly employ a 3-4-3 formation this time featuring Ellery Balcombe, Marcus Fraser, Alexandros Gogic, Richard Taylor, Elvis Bwomono, Killian Phillips, Mark O'Hara, Scott Tanser, Conor McMenamin, Toyosi Olusanya and Greg Kiltie.
ℹ️ Team News: Aberdeen
Aberdeen boss Jimmy Thelin has some current player fitness concerns. Jamie McGrath (Facial injury) and Dante Polvara (Muscle tear) will not be playing here.
From our viewpoint, The Dons seem most likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 system, giving starts to Dimitar Mitov, Nicky Devlin, Slobodan Rubezic, Gavin Molloy, Jack Mackenzie, Ante Palaversa, Graeme Shinnie, Topi Keskinen, Leighton Clarkson, Luis Lopes Duk and Ester Sokler.
✨ Prediction
We’re thinking that St Mirren will need to push hard to score goals against this Aberdeen team who we reckon should get a goal themselves and run out victorious.
With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a good battle with a 0-1 advantage for Aberdeen at the end of this game.
It should be a good one.
