First Team
Preview | Aberdeen (H)
19th August 2020
Wednesday 19 August 2020
Tomorrow night sees Callum Davidson take charge of his first home match as Manager when we welcome Aberdeen to McDiarmid Park.
It's a 7:30PM kick-off in this re-arranged Scottish Premiership fixture as Saints look to build on the weekend's 2-1 victory over Kilmarnock at Rugby Park.
Aberdeen go into the match having not played since the opening day of the season, due to COVID-19 restrictions meaning the initial fixture here was postponed along with subsequent matches with Hamilton and Celtic.
The referee tomorrow night is Willie Collum and he'll be assisted by Andrew McWilliam and Paul O'Neil.
HEAD-TO-HEAD
The two sides last met competitively in February of this year and it was Saints who came out on top in a 1-0 victory at Pittodrie.
Ali McCann was the match-winner on that occasion with the two previous encounters that season ending 1-1.
The two sides met in a pre-season friendly back in July, with Saints coming out on top 2-1 in Aberdeen.
Tomorrow is the 137th league meeting between the clubs. In the previous 136, it's Aberdeen who come out on top in the head-to-head with 54 victories in comparison to 38 Saints wins. The fixture has ended all square on 44 occasions.
