Aberdeen vs Hearts Prediction: Visitors have the upper hand

Both Aberdeen and Hearts will be looking to go back to winning ways when they face off against each other at Pittodrie Stadium on Saturday. Both teams have recently been defeated in their most recent Scottish Premiership matches, which took place over the week. The visitors are currently in third place, while the hosts are currently in the relegation zone. A victory for the hosts might provide them the opportunity to escape from that zone, and the visitors are currently in third place.

Aberdeen faced further disappointment in their challenging season as they suffered a last-minute defeat against Kilmarnock in midweek. David Watson's goal in the 92nd minute secured a 1-0 victory for Killie, marking Aberdeen's seventh loss of the season and extending their winless streak to six games across all competitions.

The Dons have struggled in the Scottish Premiership, losing half of their matches so far, and their home form has been a significant factor, with only one league victory at Pittodrie Stadium. Barry Robson faces the crucial task of reversing this trend to lift Aberdeen from their current predicament. A single win could potentially propel them out of the relegation zone, provided other results work in their favor. Currently trailing by just a point behind both St Johnstone and Motherwell, Aberdeen's fortunes could change in a single weekend, emphasizing the importance of improving their home performances.

Hearts - LWWWL

Hearts suffered a 1-0 defeat in a top-of-the-table clash against Rangers on Wednesday night, resulting in an 11-point gap between the two teams. Steven Naismith's attention is likely to shift towards securing a firmer hold on third place in the standings. The competition around them is tight, and a potential defeat could see Hearts dropping to as low as sixth, emphasizing the importance of consistent performances. While their away record this season includes three wins and four losses, Hearts have displayed defensive strength in away fixtures, a aspect they aim to maintain. The team draws confidence from a previous victory against Aberdeen, securing a 2-0 win, and they will be eager to replicate that success in upcoming matches.
