Both Aberdeen and Ross County will be hoping to finish the first phase of the campaign in the top half when they trade tackles at the Pittodrie Stadium on Saturday evening with kickoff at 17:00.
The two sit just a point apart in the Premiership standings with Ross County sitting seventh on 37 points, a point outside the top half, while Aberdeen sit ninth on 36 points two points outside the top half. Therefore, a win for either side on Saturday has the potential of taking them into the top six of the league if other results go on their favor.
Ross County have been the inform side between the two recently with the side claiming three victories from their last five Premiership matches, while Aberdeen have only claimed one victory from their last five.
However, they are both coming off stalemates with the visitors holding Hearts to a 1-1 draw at home last Saturday, while the hosts were held to a 2-2 draw by rock-bottom Dundee on the same day. Also the sides have already drawn twice this season and considering the occasion we are backing a share of the spoils in the Saturday’s clash.
