We said: St Johnstone 0-2 Aberdeen

The two teams are in contrasting form at the moment and it is the visitors who are more dominant at the moment, having won their past two matches. The fact that St Johnstone are struggling so much in front of goal is also going to have an impact on things, with a lack of confidence within the squad right now. Read more.
