All eyes will be on Pittodrie when Aberdeen take on Rangers in the Premiership round 4, with the hosts looking to bounce back while Rangers seek a much-needed response of their own. Aberdeen suffered a 2-0 defeat to Dundee FC last time out, but their overall form remains highly encouraging. The hosts have won 80% of their last five home matches, scoring an impressive 2.60 goals per game, while they have also failed to score just once in their last 10 outings. Australia international Kusini Yengi remains sidelined, but there are no other fresh injury concerns.
Rangers, meanwhile, head into this derby after a painful Conference League defeat to Jablonec and will be eager to put that disappointment behind them. The visitors have scored 1.70 goals per game across their last 10 matches, although their away form has been less convincing, with just one win in their last four road games. Jose Cifuentes should be their only absentee. Rangers have dominated this fixture historically, winning 24 of the last 39 meetings.
Given Rangers' superior H2H record makes them the logical pick despite Aberdeen's strong home form.
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Sunday 30 August 2026 at 12:00.
