On Sat Aug 6th, in week 2, Aberdeen will host St. Mirren at Pittodrie Stadium in a meeting of these two evenly matched Premiership teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, which is great football weather. Aberdeen is fresh off their 0-2 loss against Celtic. Stephen Welsh scored the first goal for Celtic in the 3rd minute, then João Filipe added another in the 75th minute In the end, Aberdeen couldn’t muster any offence and Celtic ran away with the shutout win. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 9 points in their last 10 matches, while st. Mirren is fresh off their 0-1 loss against Motherwell. Kevin van Veen struck first for Motherwell in the 42nd minute on a penalty kick, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring At the end of 90 a dissapointed St. Mirren couldn’t manage to score, and Motherwell took the shutout win. St. Mirren looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 9 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season St. Mirren won the head to head battle with 2 wins, 1 losss and 1 draw.
Greg Kiltie and Curtis Main are the top scorers for St. Mirren in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal..
