Aberdeen form and stats

Aberdeen have collected seven points from their first three Premiership games here at Pittodrie Stadium, a promising start.

Aberdeen lost their last game at Rangers (placed 2nd) after a 0-5 scoreline. 2-2 away at Hearts before that.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Aberdeen handle that role? We have found four games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The win/draw/lost stats in these games are W2-D1-L1.

The Aberdeen manager D. McInnes has got the team scoring with 7 from 3 home games in the league. Aberdeen's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 3 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Hibernian form and stats

It's not happening yet for Hibernian on their Premiership travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Hibernian's last three away games as they have all been lost.

There were no winners in Hibernian's previous match, a Premiership home game that ended 1-1 vs Celtic (placed 1st). Ahead of that match was the League Cup away draw versus Kilmarnock that ended 0-0.

We have checked recent matches where Hibernian have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those three games were W1-D1-L1.

Hibernian are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 3 away games. There are big problems for the Hibernian defense as they have conceded 11 goals in 3 away games.

Head 2 Head

Aberdeen-Hibernian H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Aberdeen 6 wins, Hibernian 1 win, 3 draws. 4 of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
