Aberdeen - St. Mirren betting tips and odds

Though Aberdeen are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

St. Mirren will have little to hope for in this match. 4.00 betting odds on them winning paint a pretty clear picture and from this standpoint there is little doubt in regard to the outcome of this clash.

Aberdeen’s defeat in the previous round was to be expected, frankly. They played as visitors against a considerably stronger team - Hibernian . They were already trailing behind during half-time, and things only went down from there on, resulting in a compelling 2:0 defeat.

St. Mirren are coming off from a crushing defeat at the hands of Celtic. The top online bookmakers priced their victory at 6.50 despite the home-field advantage. This assessment turned out to be true: St. Mirren struggled to keep up from the get-go and ended up losing the match 0:4.

Whether they’re playing home or away, Aberdeen games are rarely as exciting as fans might want them to be. Thheir previous five outings all had less than 3 goals at the 90-minute mark.

The visitors’ main concern will be cutting down the concession rate. They conceded more than 5 times in their latest 3 matches, and bucking the trend will be a great step in the right direction.

The two teams already met this season in the Premiership, with Aberdeen taking the victory. It’s understandable why most bookies consider them the favourites, though the advantage is not overwhelming.

There’s an interesting development over at Pittodrie Stadium. It seems both teams have been struck hard by injuries. On one hand, Aberdeen_INJURIES will not be playing for the hosts. Conversely, St. Mirren_INJURIES will all be unavailable on the away side. Both teams will have to deal with limited options.

Our prediction would be a fairly safe Home Win bet at the odds of 2.00. It’s obvious the hosts have a clear advantage going into this clash, and there’s plenty of reasons to feel confident in their success.
