History of the Aberdeen v Motherwell fixture

Aberdeen prepare to entertain Motherwell at Pittodrie Stadium on Saturday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Dons are clearly on top, having won 63 and lost only 13 of the 116 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Pittodrie Stadium was earlier this season, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-3 winners in a Scottish Premier match.
