No idea what Aberdeen team will turn up on Saturday. Another 18 shots at goal last night and only 3 on target.
Difficult place to go but I think we could win this by the odd goal.

Team that really is lucky not to be bottom and would be had they somehow not managed 4pts from Sevco in 2 games, but basically just look lost under Robson currently. This is a game you should be winning just now in my opinion, but they do have an ability to grind results out and defend for their lives if you look at that semi final. If you get the first you’ll likely win.

Same old issue with away form, been good of late but we struggle when oppo score first, really need to be in their face from the off and see how brittle they are

Another injury - Devlin out until the new year, probably back after the winter break.

Ironically I think them losing late on the other night will count against us. They can't hide from the mess theyre in and with our slow starting away from home, lack of goals and awful record there we could actually help them kick start their season. If we were to play without the fear we could do them but our playing style will let them come at us. Lose the first goal and we're sunk.
By the way did you know that Hearts v Aberdeen and Aberdeen v Hearts are the longest running SPFL sequence without an away win? Furthermore barely any draws or even goals by the visitors - less than 0.5 away goals scored per game going back 5 or 6 years. It would be rather nice to comprehensively end that streak.

Another injury - Devlin out until the new year, probably back after the winter break. And then if he gets pick for the Asian games out for longer, we all know what happened to Rowles form when he returned from the World Cup mid season

We need to win the physical battles today, we looked powderpuff against Sevco especially in the middle of the park.

So far so good but no shots on target since 20th minute. Two bookings both for Hearts of course.

Defence playing well. Far too many loose passes all over the park. Happy to be winning at HT.

Cochrane caught ball-watching at LB (again) on one occasion but otherwise the defence has been solid. Sibbick has done sweet FA and needs hooked. Beni passing the ball back and generally jogging about the park is annoying me. This sheep team tho are clearly lacking confidence and not exactly looking threatening, Clark hasn't had a shot to save. Sheep fans will be expecting much more.

Interesting stat from BBC:
Aberdeen have lost 23 league games in a row in which they've conceded the first goal. Will that run continue?
