History of the Aberdeen v Inverness Caledonian Thistle fixture

Aberdeen prepare to entertain Inverness Caledonian Thistle at Pittodrie Stadium on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. Four of the seven contests have been draws however, with the other three won by the Dons.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Pittodrie Stadium was less than a year ago, in January 2008, the Dons carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Scottish Premier match.
