Aberdeen – ST Mirren

Aberdeen host a crucial Scottish Premiership clash against fourth‑placed St Mirren, a meeting that could see the Dons claw back from a disappointing start to the season. Currently ten points behind the leaders, Aberdeen sit tenth with just one win, one draw and three defeats, having scored only two goals while conceding seven. Mirren, meanwhile, sit comfortably in the top half on ten points from three victories and a draw, boasting a positive goal difference of +2 after netting eight and allowing six. The contrast in form and firepower sets up a classic underdog showdown, with Aberdeen needing to tighten up at the back and find the front‑line spark that has eluded them, while Mirren will look to extend their momentum and cement their place among the league’s elite.
