Head-to-Head
The last five head-to-head meetings between these clubs have seen two wins for Aberdeen, one for Hearts and two draws, so there is nothing to separate them and our Aberdeen FC vs Hearts Of Midlothian FC prediction reflects how evenly matched these teams have been.
Key Players
- Lawrence Shankland is their star striker with 7 goals in 12 Premiership games, making him a constant goal threat and providing the firepower to strike fear into any defence.
- Jesper Karlsson has the best goalscoring record in the team with three in eight Premiership appearances so far, providing the spark in attack that can make things happen.
- Full-backs and inside forwards tend to be the key men in these tactical battles and the Jam Tarts have the better of them, so we can probably expect a Hearts win here.
Betting Insights
- Hearts are 1.9 favorites to claim the victory against the Dons on Sunday, who are listed as 3.88 outsiders after collecting 11 points from their first 11 games to sit 8th in the table.
- Both teams to score is available at 2.05, a market worth noting given the fixture history and Aberdeen’s home record.
Prediction
However, with both teams to score available at 2.05 , we’re taking that rather than the straightforward Hearts win because this fixture has a history of being very close - with Aberdeen’s home record and Thelin’s tactical setup perhaps enough to ensure that Hearts will have to work hard for their win.
