🗞️ Team News: Dundee United

We think that The Tangerines will possibly use a 3-4-3 formation for this one, utilising A. Maynard-Brewer, Iurie Iovu, Ross Graham, Vicko Sevelj, Ryan Strain, Panutche Camará, Emmanuel Agyei, Will Ferry, Luca Stephenson, Max Watters and Amar Fatah.

📰 Team News: Aberdeen

We reckon that The Dons appear most likely to make use of a 4-2-3-1 lineup, starting the game with P. K. Bråtveit, Nicky Devlin, Jack Milne, Tom McIntyre, Mitchel Frame, Afeez Aremu, Lyall Cameron, Toyosi Olusanya, Dennis Geiger, Topi Keskinen and Kevin Nisbet.

🔮 Prediction

We’re thinking that Aberdeen will do well to see themselves scoring against this Dundee United outfit who will likely get the vital goal that wins it.

We therefore see a very competitive encounter with a 1-0 advantage for Dundee United when all is said and done.

There should be little in it.
