Can Aberdeen and Hibs serve up as much of a classic as the last time they met?
The two Scottish Premiership sides took part in an enthralling six-goal thriller last month, featuring THREE stoppage time goals and two equalisers for the Hibees.
That one was at Easter Road and the two will now face off in the reverse fixture at Pittodrie this afternoon.
That evening seemed to be a turning point for David Gray’s men and they’ve had two victories since, over Motherwell and Ross County, to move up to eighth in the table.
While for Jimmy Thelin’s, it was the second of a five game winless streak and they will hope to get back on track to attempt to tighten their loosening grip on second.
Aberdeen have been rocked by two major injuries with Vicente Besuijen and Jack Milne both ruled out long-term and the Swede admitted he has a need for new recruits.
Gray and Hibs have their injury issues too with Mykola Kuharevich, Marvin Ekpiteta, Rudi Molotnikov and Kieron Bowie all out.
As a result, the two starting teams for today’s game look like the following.
