Rangers v Aberdeen

Rangers vs Aberdeen Preview

Rangers collected a fourth win on the trot in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday afternoon when they registered a comprehensive 3-0 home win against Livingston which has helped move Rangers within three points of their Old Firm rivals, Celtic, while Aberdeen did their upcoming hosts a favour by holding Celtic to a 1-1 draw at Pittodrie on the weekend.

Rangers have previously chalked up wins against the likes of Kilmarnock, Hibernian, St Mirren and Livingston respectively, while the bigger picture has produced a very promising and consistent sequence of results overall for Philippe Clement's side as The ‘Gers have su?ered just the single defeat within their last 16 matches along with picking up 14 wins in the process. The hosts' single loss during this period came in the form of a 2-1 loss away from home at arch rivals Celtic at Celtic Park but Rangers have made the most of home advantage at Ibrox in recent weeks as the home side have won each of their last seven home games on the trot with five of these seven wins also resulting in Over 2.5 goals.

The bigger picture shows Rangers have been dealt just two losses in their previous 32 home games at Ibrox and this record surely suggests goals and a Rangers win looks to be on the cards here on Tuesday night.

Aberdeen gained a creditable point by way of a 1-1 draw at home with Celtic but nevertheless, this extended The Dons' winless run in the Scottish Premiership to four games which consists of three draws and a defeat, leaving the visitors sitting in eighth place and a point outside of the top six pack in the division.

The visitors have managed to capture just three wins from their last 12 matches which have come in the shape of victories against Hearts, Livingston and Ross County respectively while also being handed five defeats within this 12-game period as well.

Three of these five defeats have been inflicted upon Peter Leven's side on their travels as The Dons have been handed losses on the road at Celtic 6-0, Hibernian 2-0 and a 2-0 loss at Hearts which does not bode well for this upcoming trip to Ibrox on Tuesday night, especially as Aberdeen have managed to register just three wins from their last 14 outings on the road.

Seven of Aberdeen's last 14 away games have also resulted in Over 2.5 goals being scored as well.

Rangers v Aberdeen Verdict

Rangers have produced an impressive sequence of results on home soil in recent times and the hosts look to have the more superior firepower up front ahead of Tuesday's encounter with Aberdeen where goals look set to flow along with Rangers taking the spoils.
