Aberdeen match preview

Saints were beaten 4-0 by Rangers on a hot afternoon in Glasgow in their last cinch Premiership game.

The Perth side almost took the lead on 18 minutes as Theo Bair connect well with the ball whilst on the deck however, the effort went the wrong side of the post.

Rangers dominated possession and they took the lead on 32 minutes as Malik Tillman got on the end of a James Tavernier cross and headed home off the underside of the crossbar from a tight angle.

Rangers second came just after the hour mark as Rabbi Matondo caught Drey Wright in possession in the box before getting the ball to Antonio Čolak who fired low into the net.

Scott Arfield then came off the bench to score Rangers third of the afternoon with 10 minutes remaining before the midfielder turned provider 3 minutes later to setup fellow substitute Tom Lawrence who slotted home to seal a comfortable win for the hosts.

Saints are back in action on Saturday as they host Aberdeen at McDiarmid Park. 

Aberdeen come into the game after losing 3-2 at home to Motherwell last weekend. The Dons took a 2-1 lead but collapsed to see The Steelmen leave with all 3 points. 

Bojan Miovski will provide the main threat for the travelling side after starting the season in good form.

Managers thoughts

"This game will be like every other game, it will be tough. Aberdeen have re-shaped their squad, they have brought in new players with quality.

"Aberdeen are an attacking team with players who can hurt you in the forward areas. We ned to make sure we do our things right, i am happy with the way things have been going lately."

Murray Davidson preview

"It's frustrating when you have to miss games. You train but have nothing to look forward to at the end of the week.

"The Motherwell game was a fantastic 3 points, it was vital to get that win early on in the season.

"Aberdeen will be an extremely tough game, they have had a large turnover in players so we will have to be at our best on Saturday."
