Aberdeen will wrap up the first round of the Scottish League Cup with a home match against League Two side Kelty Hearts. Matchday 4 of the competition finds Aberdeen top of the standings with nine points while Kelty Hearts are third on five. Aberdeen are outright favorites but only managed one clean sheet in their three games and this prediction backs Hearts to take advantage of that.
One point would be enough for Aberdeen to secure passage to the next stage. They have bagged nine points from three outings following the 4-1 victory over Queen of South.
A goal difference of +6 further confirms their advantage and barring a disastrous showing, they should be progressing.
Kelty Hearts have all to play for here. At best, they can bag the number two slot in this group, having already garnered five points from their opening three matches.
In their first ever meeting with Aberdeen, the visitors will be keen on building on the 3-2 victory against bottom-placed Brora Rangers. That marked their recovery from a 2-0 defeat at home to the team they hope to replace in second, Queen’s Park.
Their only concern at this point will be the fact that they haven’t managed a clean sheet thus far. In each of their last two matches, Kelty Hearts conceded twice.

Our Aberdeen vs Kelty Hearts Prediction
Aberdeen have placed themselves with an advantage as far as progression to the next stage is concerned. They come here needing a point but could even get more than that, going by their flying start. The hosts have claimed three wins in three matches and scored at least twice in each of the three games.
However, in their last two outings they failed to keep a clean sheet. On the other hand, Kelty Hearts have scored in two of their three matches and will definitely be a threat here. Our prediction for Aberdeen v Kelty Hearts is for Aberdeen to win and BTTS.
