Match Preview

Aberdeen is scheduled to take on Celtic in a Premiership clash at Pittodrie Stadium on February 4, 2026 GMT.

Aberdeen currently occupies the 7th position in the league standings with 28 points, while Celtic sits comfortably in 2nd place with 48 points.

Aberdeen has shown glimpses of form at home, securing 3 wins in their last 6 matches across all competitions.

On the other hand, Celtic has been impressive this season, notching up 21 wins out of their 39 matches played.

In terms of goal-scoring statistics, matches between Aberdeen and Celtic have seen over 2.5 goals scored in 6 of Aberdeen's last 10 encounters against Celtic, while 7 of Celtic's last 10 Premiership matches have also witnessed over 2.5 goals.

With Aberdeen looking to make use of their home advantage and Celtic aiming to extend their successful run, both teams will be eager to secure a positive result in this encounter.

Prediction: Celtic to win by 1-3

Last season's Scottish Cup finalists - Aberdeen and Celtic - meet for the third (and potentially final) time in the Scottish Premiership this season in Wednesday night's slightly later kick-off.

Aberdeen's 6-2 win over Livingston was the first time that they had scored six or more goals in a Scottish Premiership match since May 2017, where they beat Partick Thistle 6-0. However, their hard work from the Livi victory was undone by a capitulation in Kilmarnock, where the Dons were defeated by three goals without reply. Having lost both league meetings with the Hoops so far this season, they are up against it here.

Celtic head to Pittodrie having leapfrogged bitter rivals Rangers into second place in the Scottish Premiership table, with both the Bhoys and the Gers six points behind league leaders Hearts who are in action on Tuesday night. Should the Jambos not pick up three points in Paisley against St Mirren, you'd imagine that the Hoops will be ready to pounce and leave Pittodrie with all three by hook or by crook and particularly if Rangers beat Kilmarnock at Ibrox.

Having been on the wrong end of Kilmarnock's first league victory since October, Aberdeen's rotten recent record against Celtic should continue despite their best efforts.
