- Aberdeen have won 3 of their last 5 matches, with 3 consecutive wins heading into the latest game.
- Queen of the South have won 2, drawn 1 and lost 2 of their last 5 games.
Dons too sharp for The Doonhamers
Aberdeen are hot property at the moment and should have a bit too much for the Doonhamers in this one. The Dons sit second in League Cup Group A 2026 with 6 points from 2 games, while hosts Queen of the South sit third with 4 points from 2. Stephen Robinson's side have won 3 of their last 5 and 100% of their games on the road (W1).
A visit to Queen of the South won't be easy, but this fixture hasn't been so kind to the Dumfries side in the past. The last head-to-head in 2024/2025 was a 0-3 Aberdeen win away from home and there will be no love for the League One side this Wednesday, as Stephen Robinson's men are fresh from 3 wins in a row.
Queen of the South have won 2 of their last 5 and have been rather up and down at home in League Cup Group A 2026. They've won 0% of their 2 fixtures, picking up a 1-1 draw and a 0-1 loss. Nicky Clark has been their sharp shooter with 5 goals in the last 5 games (Queen of the South have scored 10 in the same period) and Kai Kennedy has been the architect with 3 assists.
Quick, compact and close
Aberdeen are the clear favourites at 29/100 with Queen of the South a distant second at 71/10 and the draw at 4/1. A tight Aberdeen angle makes sense here with Over 2.5 goals a 41/100 shot and Both Teams To Score - Yes a 7/10 punt.
The Dons have been excellent on the road in League Cup Group A 2026, winning their only away match. Robinson's preferred 4-3-3/4-2-3-1 formation should stretch the pitch and Queen of the South's narrow 4-4-2/4-2-3-1 shape will look to clog the middle and nick chances on the break. Kevin Nisbet has been a livewire for the Dons and his pace and power will suit this one as he can run at a compact Doonhamers team.
We think Aberdeen should come through this and are happy to support them in the Draw No Bet market. This won't be a walk in the park for the Premiership side and Queen of the South will be competitive, but the Dons are the classier outfit and should edge this.
