Aberdeen v Ross County

Aberdeen vs Ross County Preview

Aberdeen's winless run in the Scottish Premiership was extended to eight matches overall when The Dons suffered a 1-0 defeat away from home at Dundee United which became a third league defeat on the trot which saw the upcoming hosts drop down to third place in the table.

Ross County remain sitting in third from bottom place of the Scottish Premiership table despite gaining a point in a 2-2 draw at home with Hearts which also extended the visitors' unbeaten run in the domestic top flight to two games.

Aberdeen have slipped to five defeats within their last eight matches overall which have seen The Dons suffer losses at the hands of St Mirren, Celtic, Hibernian, Kilmarnock and Dundee United but the hosts now return to their Pittodrie ground for this upcoming Thursday afternoon's clash.

Despite being handed losses at home to Celtic and Hibernian, Aberdeen have still picked up seven wins within their 10 home games to date which gives Jimmy Thelin's side a decent chance to return to winning ways against lowly Ross County on home soil at Pittodrie.

Goals may also feature as six out of Aberdeen's 10 home games have also resulted in Over 2.5 goals being scored as well.

Ross County have collected four points in their last two games in the Scottish top flight having registered a 3-0 win away from home at Dundee followed by a point in a 2-2 draw at home with Hearts, so the visitors will be feeling upbeat about their chances of a result at Pittodrie on Thursday.

However, league wins in the Scottish Premiership have been hard to come by for Ross County as Don Cowie's side have managed to capture just four wins in total so far in this season's Premiership campaign, three of which were registered on home soil at their Global Energy Stadium.

Victories picked up against Dundee, Kilmarnock and Motherwell were all registered on home soil while the visitors' only win to date this term so far came in the shape of a 3-0 win on the road at Dundee but they have also slipped to five defeats within their nine outings on the road.

The bigger picture shows Ross County possess an extremely poor record away from home in the Scottish Premiership as the visitors have collected just one win from their last 26 away games which includes slipping to 16 defeats in the process which does not bode well for this upcoming trip to face high-flying Aberdeen.

Aberdeen v Ross County Verdict

Aberdeen have picked up six wins within their last seven meetings against Ross County and The Dons look the more likely to pick up all three points here at Pittodrie as the hosts return to winning ways.

Therefore, our main bet will be Aberdeen win @ 1.53

Other side bets worth considering:

Aberdeen win & Over 2.5 goals @ 2.40
