Aberdeen have had a mixed run lately, with a couple of draws, a win, and a loss, while St Johnstone have also been up and down, picking up a win but also losing and drawing. Neither team looks clearly dominant, and their recent meetings have often been tight, with several draws and low-scoring games.

Because the two sides are so evenly matched and past matchups have usually been close, this one could easily end in a draw. If either team edges it, Aberdeen look slightly more likely to come out on top, but a share of the points is just as possible.
