- Aberdeen have won four of their last five games in all competitions, losing once.
- The Gers have won two of their last five matches, drawing one and losing two.
Dons can give Gers a run for their money
Aberdeen FC have made a flying start to the Scottish Premiership 2026/2027 campaign and are unbeaten in 1 fixture at home coming into this one.
The Dons edged Hearts 2-1 in their only home game to date in the league while they recorded a 3-0 success over Dundee on home soil in the League Cup.
Aberdeen have failed to beat the club from the west in the last 2 games in this fixture.
The Dons have a big challenge on their hands to turn around that recent run but Stephen Robinson has got them playing with a sharpness that should make this a close match.
Kevin Nisbet has been their main goal threat so far with 2 goals in 2 Premiership 2026/2027 matches while Lewis Mayo has been a useful provider, registering 1 assist in 2 league games in 2026/2027.
Thelo Aasgaard has been Rangers' main threat so far with 1 goal in 2 matches and Derek McInnes has made them more pragmatic.
The Rangers are on a 2-game winning streak after thrashing St Mirren 5-1 in the League Cup and holding Jablonec off to a 1-0 win in UEFA Conference League qualifying.
Their form is a mixed bag with two wins, one draw and two defeats in their last five matches in all competitions.
They are the odds-on favourite at 67/100, with the Dons 73/20 and the draw 59/20.
They should edge out this match but the momentum Aberdeen have built up at Pittodrie could keep it tight.
The Dons' high press should try to rattle Rangers, who are used to being on the front foot in this game, but McInnes has set up his side in a way that they should be able to soak up pressure and hit on the break.
Over 2.5 goals at 31/50 is the cleaner play, particularly as both sides carry an attacking threat.
