Aberdeen vs Rangers Prediction

Aberdeen have made an emphatic start to the season. They were closer to the relegation zone than being anywhere near the title race last season but are competing with the big two in the early part of the campaign. Their form hasn't been limited to just the league, with Jimmy Thelin continuing to weave his magic wand in the dugout since his apppointment in the summer.

Rangers, meanwhile, are typically the side pushing Celtic at the summit of the table but have been usurped so far by Aberdeen and are six points off the top two. Both sides will fancy their chances of winning, but expect the spoils to be shared in a low-scoing stalemate.
