Match Facts
Motherwell won three of their four league games against Aberdeen between September 2021 and August 2022 (D1) but have since failed to win any of their last four such meetings with the Dons (D1 L3).
Aberdeen have won their last two away league games against Motherwell, and could win three in a row at Fir Park against the Steelmen for the third time this century, having also done so in 2003 and 2018.
Motherwell have won both of their last two Scottish Premiership matches, and could win three in a row in the competition for the first time since September 2023.
Aberdeen are winless across their last six Scottish Premiership games played on a Saturday (D2 L4), conceding 2+ goals in five of those matches.
Theo Bair has scored four goals in his last four league appearances at Fir Park, after only scoring once across his first 10 such matches at home for Motherwell beforehand; the Canadian has netted three goals in his last two Scottish Premiership appearances versus Aberdeen.
