Prediction: 2-1
Aberdeen
All eyes will be on Tynecastle Stadium when Hearts and Aberdeen face each other on day 3 of the new Premiership campaign. Hearts kicked off the new Premier League campaign in style, with the team beating both Celtic and St. Mirren, but they failed to shock Celtic in the League Cup last 16 at the weekend. The good news for the hosts is that midfielder Jamie Walker made his return from injury in the League Cup defeat to Celtic.
The Dons, on the other hand, suffered a shocking 2-1 loss to Raith in the League Cup. Aberdeen are eager to get back on course as soon as possible, but seeing that they will be with one eye on the Conference League clash against Qarabag, we are tempted to put our money on the home team. In their last meeting in the national championship the two teams played out a 1-1 draw.
