Michael O'Halloran does well to win a free-kick about 30 yards out, but Callum Hendry's free-kick hits the wall. It was a very poor free-kick, it has to be said, and another good chance squandered by Hendry.

Callum Hendry with another good chance - he looks annoyed with himself that he didn't do better with it. He got himself into a good position after picking up another slack Aberdeen ball. He showed quickness to pick it up after the loose pass, but a poor finish from the Saints striker.

Ross McCrorie already having to show his versatility, as it appears he has moved to right-back for Aberdeen. St Johnstone look lively in the opening few minutes of this half.

We're off again, and Aberdeen have made two changes in an effort to bring this match to life. Matty Kennedy and Connor McLennan come on for Dean Campbell and Ronald Hernandez.

Despite Aberdeen enjoying more possession, almost double the amount of action is in the Dons' own half... Seems evident from this graphic that the visitors are struggling without a recognised striker.

Here's a mind-boggling stat - Ross McCrorie is the first player to sign for Aberdeen from Rangers in 51 years.

The last player to cross the divide was the late Alex Willoughby, who joined the Pittodrie club from the Gers in 1969.

Has the 22-year-old impressed so far in the Dons defence?

Agree, Dons fans?

Our player rater for tonight's game is now LIVE!

Have a shot at telling us who has impressed... and who hasn't, HERE.

It's not a classic so far, it has to be said...

There is not a lot of pressure on the Aberdeen defenders when they have the ball, but St Johnstone don't have to work very hard to get the ball back, with the Dons slack in possession so far.

The Saints meanwhile not threatening enough either.

A couple of half chances at each end, but both sides will be hoping for more goalmouth action in the second-half.

Approaching half-time and we are still waiting for the first goal. No one wants a third consecutive goalless draw in the Scottish Premiership, so here's hoping someone breaks the deadlock soon...

Aberdeen with a superb chance there... Jonny Hayes drove a cross into the area, before Funso Ojo lifts his right foot unnaturally high to volley it just over the bar. Great effort.

Callum Hendry, after coming back on the field from an injury, had a glorious opportunity there. It looked to be four against two for a second, with the striker driving at the Aberdeen defence, although he hesitated and couldn't get a shot away. He had a couple of options there, including Liam Craig out wide, and probably should have done better.

Callum Hendry goes down holding his knee after jumping up for a header - he has returned to the pitch though which Callum Davidson will be relieved about.
