Aberdeen – Heart Of Midlothian

Aberdeen held on for a 2‑1 win over Heart of Midlothian at Pittodrie, edging the match and lifting them to 10th place with four points after one victory, one draw and three defeats. The visitors remain rooted at the bottom of the table in 95th, still winless with two points from two goalless draws and a goal difference of minus three. The win not only gave Aberdeen their second league triumph of the campaign but also extended their head‑to‑head advantage over Hearts, having already taken the sole encounter between the sides this season. With the three‑goal deficit that has haunted them all season, Aberdeen will be hoping the momentum from this narrow success can spark a climb up the table, while Hearts must find a way to turn their barren run around.
