Aberdeen and St. Mirren meet often enough to know each other's game well, and in the last six meetings St. Mirren have come away with the win four times, including the most recent one, a 2-0 victory away at Pittodrie. This time it is different in that Aberdeen are back playing at home again, after just losing at home. Aberdeen still have not found their rhythm in the league. This season they have played eight matches and picked up only two wins, and the latest one was a 0-1 defeat. Their attack still relies more on playing at home than away. As for St. Mirren, their recent form is dire, losing four in a row, especially the last two where they were thrashed 0-3 and then 0-5. A defence that used to be solid is starting to leak, having already conceded fourteen goals in eight matches. If Aberdeen press from the start and get the opening goal, the game should flow the home side's way, because St. Mirren are now short on confidence and will have to open up and trade blows, which is exactly the situation Aberdeen are best at.
