*Odds from 7Bet, subject to change
It's pretty clear looking at these Aberdeen vs Hibernian odds that hosts are the expected winners, which isn't a surprise if we take a look at the standings where Aberdeen are 19 points ahead of Hibs.
That being said, Aberdeen are in bad shape right now and winless in five games, while Hibernian have won two of their last three, so this should be a closer and more interesting duel than it seems at first glance.

Aberdeen preview: Hoping to end their poor run of form
After starting the season with 10 wins and one draw, Aberdeen have slowed down and came back to Earth lately since they're winless in their last five matches in the league, two of which they've lost. Despite these results, Aberdeen are still second in the Premiership standings, only behind Celtic, although Rangers are now just two points behind with a game in hand.
When it comes to team news, Pape Habib Gueye and Dimitar Mitov remain out with injuries, while Jack MacKenzie is once again doubtful.

Hibernian preview: Looking to build on their solid run
With two wins in their last three games in the league, Hibernian have been in the best form yet this season, given that they've only secured three wins overall from 17 games. Thanks to these couple of wins, Hibs have escaped the relegation zone, although they remain just a couple of points ahead of the last team in the standings right now.
Meanwhile, Kieron Bowie, Marvin Ekpiteta, Rudi Molotnikov, and Mykola Kukharevych are all ruled out with injuries.
Predicted lineup: Smith (GK), O'Hora, Kiranga, Iredale, C. Cadden, Triantis, Newell, N. Cadden, Hoilett, Gayle & Youan

Player to watch: Jamie McGrath
One of Aberdeen's key players this season has been McGrath, who helped his team stay in pursuit of top spot in the league with four goals and six assists. With that in mind, the Irish midfielder is our player to watch in this match too.
