Aberdeen and Motherwell will meet in the quarter-final of the Scottish League Cup on Saturday afternoon at Pittodrie Stadium. The Dons have only lost one of their last 10 matches against the Steelmen across all competitions. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Aberdeen are set to feature in the quarter-final of the Scottish League Cup for a fourth season on the bounce, though they only managed to reach the final once in this period (2023-24).
The Dandies kicked off their cup campaign against Greenock Morton and delivered a commanding performance, beating the lower-division outfit 3-0 on the road last month.
However, aside from this competition, the hosts have made a terrible start to the season, failing to qualify for Europe, while also failing to win any of their first four league games to date (D1 L3).
Meanwhile, Motherwell are in the quarter-final for a second consecutive year. They were beaten 2-1 by Rangers in the semi-final of last season’s League Cup.
The Well were made to work for their spot in the last eight, though, as they needed extra time to get by St Johnstone after their second-round match ended goalless in regulation time.
The visitors have drawn each of their six games this season (in regulation time), including all five of their matches in the top flight.

Our Aberdeen vs Motherwell Prediction
Barring their victory against Greenock Morton in the last round, Aberdeen have made a dismal start to the season and enter this match after failing to score in any of their last three fixtures.
Motherwell, meanwhile, have been tough to beat this season, but their record at Pittodrie Stadium is poor, with each of their last three visits ending in defeat. The last time they won at this venue was in 2021. Our Aberdeen vs Motherwell prediction is both teams to score (NO).
