Rangers vs Aberdeen Prediction: Rangers could be held to a draw

Round of thirteen matches of the Scottish Premiership will feature Rangers hosting Aberdeen. We give match analysis and betting options in the below paragraphs.

Even though they started the season well, their performances have gone downhill quickly in the Scottish League and in the Champions League. This has caused some worry at Ibrox. In their last league game, John Lundstram scored in the 91st minute to tie the game 1-1 at home against Livingston. This made the gap at the top of the league grow to four points. The next week, they lost 3-0 to Napoli on the road in the Champions League. Giovanni Simeone scored twice, and Leo Ostigard scored with a strong header. Rangers will have to play better against Aberdeen on Saturday if they want to win again at home, which would close the gap between them and Celtic to one point when Celtic plays on Sunday.

Aberdeen is in good shape under Jim Goodwin, having won their last three games in all competitions. They will be going to Ibrox this weekend, hoping to pull off a surprise. The Dons are currently in third place in the Scottish Premiership. If they win in Glasgow, they could get within four points of Rangers in second place. Last time out, goals from Bojan Miovski and Luis Lopes were enough to give Aberdeen a 2-1 win on the road against Motherwell at Fir Park. Stuart McKinstry scored a goal to tie the game, but Bojan Miovski and Luis Lopes scored again to win the game. Still, this was only their second league win away from home all season, and they will need to get better on the road if they want to keep up with other teams vying for spots in Europe. Goodwin will want his team to make another step forward this weekend, but they will have to be at their best against a tough opponent to win.

The odds are in favor of the Rangers. However, we expect a tough match. Looking at the recent performances of Aberdeen, we expect the visitors to be able to score a goal. Bet on over 2.5 goals. Good luck.
