Aberdeen prepare to entertain Kilmarnock at Pittodrie Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Dons are clearly on top, having won 49 and lost only 18 of the 83 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Pittodrie Stadium was less than a year ago, in December 2004, as the Dons squeezed past their rivals by a scoreline of 3-2 in a riveting Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides
Aberdeen have performed averagely at home, winning 3 and losing 2 of their last six. A total of 10 goals have been scored by the Dons in those games, with 7 conceded. However, it must be remembered that most of these games were in the Top 6 of the SPL last season.
Kilmarnock have an average recent record on the road, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Killie have hit 6 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net. To compound this, most of these games were against mediocre opposition in the Bottom 6 of the SPL last season.
Aberdeen's 1 points from 1 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 6th position. Kilmarnock are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 0 points from 1 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its a close one to call, but I think that Dons's reasonable showing at home is going to see them scrape past Kilmarnock. Home Win
