Aberdeen are set to face Dundee United with both teams making changes to their starting line-ups.
Aberdeen’s Team Changes
Aberdeen are making two changes from the side that drew 2-2 with Livingston last Friday night. Centre-half Mats Knoester starts, with Alexander Jensen dropping out. Midfielder Emmanuel Gyamfi returns to the starting XI after being sidelined against Livingston after suffering a concussion during training. Mitchel Frame drops to the bench.
Dundee United’s New Lineup
Jim Goodwin makes three changes to the United side that lost 3-0 to Kilmarnock last weekend. Centre-back Sam Cleall-Harding, midfielder Panutche Camara and striker Max Watters all drop to the bench. Iurie Iovu, Ryan Strain and Vicko Sevelj come into the starting line-up.

David Gray’s Hibs have lost three in a row, last losing four under Lee Johnson in 2023, and are also three successive away games without a win. The Edinburgh side were swept aside 4-1 on their last visit to Falkirk in January and have not won there in their latest three.
Neil McCann has yet to resolve Kilmarnock’s poor away form since taking charge in January. Meanwhile, since he became interim boss in March, St Mirren’s Craig McLeish is still searching for a solution to a lack of firepower, with the Buddies’ 27 league goals being at least eight fewer than any other side.
St Mirren have slipped to second bottom after three league defeats in a row – four overall including their Scottish Cup semi-final exit to Celtic. Kilmarnock overtook them by a point after last week’s 3-0 win over Du
