A struggling Aberdeen will visit Dundee in their second game of the ongoing Scottish Premiership season. Match will begin on Wednesday, March 13, at 8:45 PM CET.
Dundee
While Dundee got relegated twice during the past decade, it did not take long for them to come back to the Premiership last season, swapping places with their archrival, Dundee United.
The latter are likely going to return next year, as Dundee themselves are ten points clear of a potential relegation zone, trying to post up a top-6 finish. The issue in that quest is that the Dark Blues field the worst defense in the entire SPL, being the only team to allow 50 goals with an extra game to spare.
Aberdeen
The Dons from Aberdeen have never been relegated from the first division, being the strongest non-”Old Firm” club in the rich Scottish football history. This season, however, is not the one to be proud of.
While Aberdeen recently got to the Scottish Cup semi-finals, they have only 27 points to their name in the league, four clear of the relegation zone. Team has not recorded a Premiership victory since January 2, lost in a tragic fashion to St. Mirren last week, after allowing two extra time goals, sacked another manager, as pressure keeps piling up.
Prediction ⚽️
Teams drew “1-1” in the first round in January, as Dundee has pulled away from Aberdeen in the standings ever since.
With both teams unable to protect their goal, the expectations are that this contest might be a higher scoring affair than a “1-1” draw. We will side with the attack over defense and bet on Dundee and Aberdeen scoring more than 2.5 goals with 1.86 odds 🔥.
