Our predictions for Aberdeen vs Hibernian
Match Prediction: Aberdeen 3-1 Hibernian
Aberdeen's recent form suggests they could dominate this match. With two convincing wins against St. Mirren and Dundee, they've shown they can be ruthless in front of goal. Their losses away from home indicate a potential vulnerability, but playing at home might give them the edge they need.
Hibernian have been inconsistent, with a strong win against Livingston but also a loss and several draws. Their ability to score goals, as seen in their draws, could make this an open game, but Aberdeen's home advantage and recent form might be too much for them.
Hibernian will need to be at their best to challenge Aberdeen. Their recent results show they can be dangerous, especially at home, but their away form has been less convincing. If they can replicate their performance against Livingston, they might keep the game close. However, Aberdeen's recent home victories suggest they are likely to come out on top in what could be a high-scoring affair.
