Unlike Celtic, Aberdeen continues to fight for the right to remain in the top six of the Scottish Premier League. To put it bluntly, the victory in the upcoming match is much more important for the Reds. Aberdeen has already lost too many points in the last five matches (three draws and two losses). The main thing is not to concede a lot of goals from Celtic and to use your attempts as best as possible. By the way, the teams scored less than three goals in three of the last five head-to-head meetings.
The last time the teams crossed their paths in the Scotland Cup. Then Celtic dealt with Aberdeen, but this did not require a lot of scoring (2:0). Now the favorite is not too motivated, so it will play even in a calmer rhythm. Aberdeen will also not run forward from the very first minutes of the match although it needs to gain points. The Reds understand that this is fraught with consequences. Therefore, we are likely to see a pragmatic game with a small number of goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 goals scored
