Jim Goodwin and his Aberdeen team take on his Saints successor Stephen Robinson and the Buddies, who are three points clear of the Dons ahead of the final Scottish Premiership matchday. It's been an appalling season for the Dons, playing in the bottom six for the first time since the 2012-13 season. The start of Stephen Glass' reign looked very promising, but ultimately it didn't work out. Jim Goodwin has been tasked with yet another summer of transfers aplenty, in the hope that the club will return to fighting towards the top of the table. Whilst results under the former Buddies boss have been poor, he needs to sign a few players of his own. Stephen Robinson finally appears to be getting a tune out of the players he's taken charge of since his predecessor left Paisley for Pittodrie. Three consecutive clean sheets in the league, seven points from their last nine available, Saints have steered clear of survival with their sights set on an eighth-place finish. Livingston have a superior goal difference and host already-relegated Dundee but if the Buddies can equal or better Hibs' result then eighth place is theirs. Given Saints' fine form recently, they'll be looking to leave Pittodrie with at least a point against Aberdeen and come back to bite their former boss. 1:1
Jim Goodwin named three changes to the Aberdeen team that were held in a 1-1 draw with Hibernian at Easter Road, before they lost 1-0 to St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park in their seventeenth defeat of the Scottish Premiership season. A summer of shopping is bound to take place at Pittodrie this season, with the Dons squad beginning to take shape. Mikey Devlin, Scott Brown and Jay Emmanuel-Thomas have already departed, Christian Ramirez potentially next. Funso Ojo replaced Ross McCrorie at right-back. Adam Montgomery replaced Jonny Hayes as part of the trio - joining Vicente Besuijen and Lewis Ferguson - in support of the incoming lone striker Michael Ruth who replaced Marley Watkins. Stephen Robinson made just one enforced change after Saints beat Dundee 2-0 in Paisley, before being held in their final home match in a goalless draw against Livingston in their final home match of the season. Connor Ronan has returned to parent club Wolves to have an ankle injury assessed, having potentially played his last game for the Buddies. Ryan Flynn replaced Richard Tait, who sat out against Livi with a foot injury. Both Alex Grieve and Curtis Main started in attack, after grabbing the goals that secured survival for Saints against Dundee. Neither have proved particularly prolific, given it's Grieve's first goal since mid-February and Main's first since September.
Aberdeen are undefeated in their last 16 home matches against St. Mirren in all competitions. Aberdeen have seen over 2.5 goals in 9 of their last 10 home matches against St. Mirren in all competitions. Aberdeen have scored at least 2 goals in 10 of their last 11 home matches against St. Mirren in all competitions.
