Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson expects a cagey, low-scoring game at Pittodrie.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Draw | 11/4 (Betfred) | It is hard to make a strong case for either side. Aberdeen have won just one of four at home and scored only twice there all season, while St. Mirren have lost their last four but hold a strong historical edge in this fixture, winning seven of the last 10 meetings. With Aberdeen misfiring badly and St. Mirren traditionally awkward opponents for them, the draw at 11/4 has real appeal, and a low-scoring stalemate would fit both teams’ recent output. |
| Kevin Nisbet to score anytime | 13/10 (bet365) | Kevin Nisbet has three league goals for Aberdeen this season and remains the Dons’ main threat in the box. St. Mirren have lost four in a row, and they have conceded in each of those defeats, so chances should come Nisbet’s way at Pittodrie. Aberdeen have been inconsistent, but they have the striker most likely to make the difference in what could be a tight game. bet365 have Nisbet at 13/10 to score anytime. |

How Aberdeen go into the game
Aberdeen’s season has been defined by a lack of goals. The Dons have scored just seven times in eight games and failed to find the net in five of them, which has left them eighth in the table.
Home form is a particular worry: only two goals in four games at Pittodrie, where they have won once. A 1-0 home defeat to St. Johnstone last time out summed up their struggles in front of goal.
How St. Mirren go into the game
St. Mirren arrive in alarming form, having lost their last four league games while conceding 14 goals overall. They were hammered 5-0 at Hearts last time out and also lost 3-0 at home to Dundee United during that run.
The one crumb of comfort is their excellent recent record against Aberdeen, having won seven of the last 10 meetings between the clubs.
