Aberdeen will have to settle for a point – at best
Aberdeen are having their worst Premiership campaign in a very long time; they have won just nine of their 32 league games so far. As a matter of fact, Aberdeen have struggled to win games in recent months; they won just one of their last 12 games, with five draws and six losses. Ross County, on the other hand, have been relatively better than Aberdeen; they won three of their last five games, losing just once in that five game stretch. It’s also important to note that Ross County have no losses in their last three encounters with Aberdeen; and for this reason, we believe that Ross County will not lose this match.
Goals at both ends
Clashes between Aberdeen and Ross County have seen a lot of goals from both sides; both teams scored in five of their last seven meetings. In the same vein, both teams have scored and conceded a lot of goals recently. Aberdeen have no clean sheets in their last 12 games; conversely, they found the back of the net in nine of their last 11 games. Just like Aberdeen, Ross County have not had too much trouble scoring goals; as they’ve done so in nine of their last 11 games. Considering both teams scored in nine of Aberdeen’s last 11 games, both teams should score today.
A low scorer
The last two meetings between Ross County and Aberdeen ended in 1:1 draws; and three of their last four clashes saw less than three goals scored. We would like to point out that both teams have been involved in a lot of low-scoring games recently; Ross County kept two clean sheets in their last four games, with three of those games going under 2.5. Similarly, five of Aberdeen’s last seven games went below the 2.5 goal mark. All things considered, we shouldn’t expect too many goals in this game.
