| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Kevin Nisbet to score anytime | 8/5 (bet365) | Kevin Nisbet has led the line for Aberdeen and should fancy his chances against a St. Johnstone side that has been leaky on the road. The Dons smashed four at Motherwell recently and carry a threat at home, even if a 1-1 draw at Hibernian came last time out. With Aberdeen the stronger side and Nisbet their main man, he is well placed to find the net. At 8/5 the striker is a fair price at Pittodrie in a game the hosts should edge. |
| Aberdeen and both teams to score | 7/2 (bet365) | St. Johnstone have scored in five of their seven league games, and five of their matches have seen both teams score, so they should carry a threat at Pittodrie. Aberdeen have been harder to read, but they arrive unbeaten in three after hammering Motherwell 4-0 away and drawing 1-1 at Hibernian last time out. The Dons are 5/4 favourites to win, and a home victory in which the visitors also find the net looks the likeliest outcome. At 7/2, the combination is a decent price. |
