Aberdeen have seen under 2.5 goals in 10 of their last 11 matches against St. Johnstone in all competitions. Aberdeen have kept a clean sheet in their last 3 matches against St. Johnstone in all competitions. St. Johnstone have failed to score in their last 3 away matches (Premiership). There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Aberdeen's last 4 home games (Premiership). St. Johnstone have failed to win their last 7 matches (Premiership). Aberdeen are undefeated in their last 5 matches against St. Johnstone in all competitions.
Stephen Glass made two changes after Aberdeen were held at home by Ross County in a 1-1 draw at Pittodrie prior to the international break, before succumbing to a 2-0 defeat away to Motherwell at Fir Park. Dean Campbell, a midfield player by trade, was handed his first start of the season at left-back in the match against the Staggies. However, he was replaced by Jack MacKenzie in the Dons defence for the trip to Lanarkshire. There was a Dons debut for Austin Samuels, on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers, as part of the duo supporting Christian Ramirez in attack against County. But against the Well, Marley Watkins made his first start in his second spell with Aberdeen. Callum Davidson made four changes after St Johnstone settled for a share of the spoils against St Mirren in Paisley, before blowing their lead to lose 2-1 against reigning champions Rangers at McDiarmid Park at the weekend. Club captain Jason Kerr and midfield maestro Ali McCann have departed for Wigan Athletic and Preston North End, respectively, and were replaced by Millwall loanee Hayden Muller in defence and Ali Crawford being handed his debut in midfield. And in attack, Stevie May and Callum Hendry made way for Chris Kane and goalscorer Michael O'Halloran. Glenn Middleton was ineligible against his parent club, but could come back into the equation for the trip up north here.
Five points separate sixth-placed Aberdeen with St Johnstone in eighth, the hosts having just lost for the first time in the league and the visitors yet to win. Aberdeen made it six games without a victory after falling to defeat away to Motherwell at Fir Park, but still find themselves in the top six and just four points off top spot, highlighting how early it is in the season. There's no need to panic just yet, and the Dons will feel as though there's a great chance to get back to winning ways against a St Johnstone side in search of a maiden victory. Saints are traditionally slow starters, but not many would've predicted they'd go five league games without a win right at the start of the campaign. While the weekend didn't pan out the way that they'd have liked, particularly having gone ahead, there are plenty of positives to extract from the Rangers match. However, pressure will begin to build the longer they go without winning. Aberdeen could do with the win to keep tabs on the sides vying for Europe and Saints have to get off the mark sooner rather than later but neither are in particularly great fettle, which makes this match all the trickier to call. 1:1
