- Aberdeen FC have won their last 5 consecutive matches
- Dundee FC have won 2 of the last 5 head-to-heads, Aberdeen FC have won 3 and there have been no draws
Dundee are a solid side
Dundee FC and Aberdeen FC are in completely different moods heading into Saturday's Premiership 2026-2027 clash at Scot Foam Stadium, with Dundee having won 3 of their last 5 and the Dons coming in with 5 consecutive wins to their name.
The Dee won 3 of their last 5 after beating Aberdeen FC 3-2 at home in the Premiership - Relegation Round in 2026 and have a home advantage on Saturday, but Stephen Robinson's side are flying and could cause an upset.
Dundee's form at Dens Park has been mixed across all competitions with 4 wins and 2 defeats from 6 fixtures while Aberdeen FC have won 3 and lost 2 from 5 away trips in the same period, although the Dons have conceded just five times in those fixtures and Dundee FC have shipped 11 at home.
Dons are on the rampage
Dundee FC have won five, drawn one and lost four of their last ten in all competitions while Aberdeen FC have six wins and four defeats from their 10 most recent games. The Dons can win if they keep up their current level of form and there should be a bit of a tussle given the contrasting set-ups of the two clubs.
Dundee are quite pragmatic in their approach with Steven Pressley setting them up to compete in duels and transition moments at a low-to-medium tempo. Aberdeen FC have a higher press and play much quicker, with Robinson using his wing-backs and direct runners to try and turn the opposition over.
The wide areas will be key
That should see the wide channels become key to this game with the Dons trying to stretch Dundee's block and the Dee looking to counter and take their chances from set-piece situations.
Kevin Nisbet is the main goal threat for Aberdeen FC, having scored twice in one Premiership 2026/2027 game, and four of the Dons' ten goals in the last five fixtures. Lewis Mayo has added some bite from the back with one assist in one game so Aberdeen have some decent delivery men to play off.
Although the Dons are the slight favourites at 8/5, Dundee can be had at 29/20 with the draw at 5/2, which looks quite a bit short. A close game looks likely and the home edge makes Dundee a tempting bet, but Aberdeen have shown they can get the better of them and have won two of their last three visits to the city.
Aberdeen to nick it
Aberdeen are the form team and probably the more talented squad, so it looks like they may nick it in the end. But Under 2.5 goals at 19/20 is the best match bet and Both Teams to Score at 31/50 also seems a sensible alternative as both sides should have the edge to get a goal.
Dundee FC won the reverse fixture 3-2 and have the home advantage here, but Aberdeen FC have won their last five straight games and are due another victory.
