Aberdeen
Fir Park will host Saturday’s football game between Motherwell and Aberdeen, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Premiership table. The Well aim to put an end to their six-game winless run, but given their difficulties in front of goal, home win should not be considered. Head coach Graham Alexander should have a full squad to choose from against Aberdeen.
The Dons, on the other hand, are eyeing their first league win since December 26, 2021. Considering that the visitors are desperate to return to winning ways as well, both teams to score betting option should be considered. As for the visiting side, all Marley Watkins, Andrew Considine, and Michael Devlin should miss out with injuries. When the two teams met in the Scottish Cup at the weekend Motherwell defeated Aberdeen 2-1, meaning that the visitors are hungry for revenge.
