Aberdeen vs Rangers Prediction & Betting Tips - Scottish Premiership

Celtic lead the Scottish Premiership by six points and host out-of-form Hibs on Wednesday. The same evening, second-placed Rangers travel to Aberdeen who are third and a draw could be a nightmare result for both of them. Aberdeen are two points behind their opponents but have won three of their last four league games.  They had to come from behind on Saturday to get a 2-1 win at Hibs and return to Pittodrie looking to improve their home form. Aberdeen have failed to win either of their last two home matches losing to Celtic and then being held to a goalless draw by Kilmarnock. Previous home games against Rangers have seen no wins since 2016 but the last two have both been drawn 1-1.

Rangers had a 4-0 home win over St Mirren at the weekend. Three of their goals were penalties and they missed another one!  That win kept them six points behind Celtic and they have won two of their last three away league games, though they did lose recently at Kilmarnock. Away form has been a bit patchy this season with only five wins out of 12. This should be a closely fought game and the tip is for under 2.5 goals to be scored.
