Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Rangers will be aiming to build on a 3-1 win over St Johnstone when they take on Aberdeen in a postponed Premiership game. The Gers are on a four-game winning run at home, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Aberdeen. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Vaclav Cerny, who is likely to prove a handful for the opposition back-line, while fellow forward Danilo is unlikely to feature after limping off with injury in a 3-1 win over St Johnstone.
The Dons, on the other hand, continue to struggle in the Premier League following a brilliant start to the season. As Aberdeen are on a three-game losing run on the road, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the midweek clash. The likes of Dimitar Mitov, Ester Sokler, Gavin Molloy, Jack Milne, Pape Habib Gueye, and Vicente Besuijen miss out with injuries for the away team.
