    Watch highlights from Aberdeen defeat

    Motherwell fought in vain as they went down 1-0 for the second week in succession, losing out this time away at Aberdeen.

    James Wilson’s early goal was the difference between the two sides, with the visitors having three penalty calls waved away.

    Players react to Dons defeat

    Tom Aldred, Trevor Carson and Elliott Frear reflected on a frustrating afternoon at Pittodrie. 

    An early James Wilson goal was enough for the hosts to secure all three points, during a scrappy encounter against Derek McInnes’ side.

    Robinson frustrated with Dons display

    Stephen Robinson expressed his disappointment following his side’s 1-0 defeat against Aberdeen. 

    Despite hitting the woodwork and being denied a couple of penalty claims, the Fir Park outfit slumped to a disappointing loss at Pittodrie.

    “There’s not a whole lot in the game but we’ve only got ourselves to blame,” he said.

    “We started the game poorly and we were punished for it, made to chase the game from the off which turned a difficult task in to a very difficult one.”

    Aberdeen 1 – 0 Motherwell

    An early goal from James Wilson inflicted a 1-0 defeat at Pittodrie for the Steelmen.

    Following a narrow defeat against Hearts, Stephen Robinson’s men arrived in Aberdeen searching for a response ahead of Wednesday’s trip to Tynecastle in the Betfred Cup.

    However, despite being denied two significant penalty claims and going close through Carl McHugh and Chris Cadden, it was the Dons who picked up all three points.

    Stephen Robinson named three changes to his starting eleven, bringing Elliott Frear, Liam Donnelly and Conor Sammon in to his side.

    It took just six minutes for the hosts to open the scoring, and it was a well-worked goal. Niall McGinn, collecting the ball on the left hand side, threaded a neat pass through for Wilson, who finished neatly beyond Trevor Carson.

    During what was a scrappy encounter, McHugh showed a moment of class when he thundered a right footed effort on goal, only to see it rattle the crossbar.

    In the dying minutes, Joe Lewis produced a wonderful save to deny Chris Cadden’s low strike, before Tom Aldred was denied a stonewall penalty when his goalbound header was blocked by the upwards, outstretched hand of Andrew Considine.

    Lasley chats ahead of Aberdeen clash

    Keith Lasley is hoping to see another solid ‘Well display against Aberdeen on Saturday. 

    Stephen Robinson’s assistant believes the Fir Park outfit can call on their recent success against the Dons to inspire a similar showing at Pittodrie.

    However, the 39-year-old is still expecting a tough encounter.

    “Aberdeen are always going to be strong, particularly at home,” he said. “We need to play well to win, but we know we’re capable of that.”

    Previewing the trip to face Aberdeen

    Previewing the trip to face Aberdeen

    It’s Aberdeen next for Motherwell, as they go in the hunt of points in the Ladbrokes Premiership.

    Pittodrie was a happy hunting ground last campaign, with the Steelmen winning 2-0 on their only visit. Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.

    The form guide

    Both teams arrive at the game in topsy-turvy form.

    Motherwell’s weekend loss to Hearts was narrow and came off the back of a run of three games unbeaten, including wins at Livingston and Dundee, and a home draw with Rangers.

    Aberdeen have no wins in their last three, drawing away to Hibernian and St Johnstone, and losing 2-0 at home to Kilmarnock.

    But the Dons had started the domestic campaign strong, drawing at home to Rangers and then beating Dundee and St Mirren.

    Team news

    Curtis Main is out for the trip north with injury. Trevor Carson will be assessed as he continues his recovery from a minor ankle injury.

    Conor Sammon is available to play, having been ineligible to face his parent club Hearts last weekend.

    Ticket prices

    Adult entry will cost £26, while there are a range of concession prices available.

    Over 65s can get in for £19, while over 75s and under 21s can gain entry for £15.

    Under 18s go for £10, and children aged 12 and under can get in for £6.

    Anyone requiring ambulant or wheelchair access should contact Brian on 07428 225254.

    Ryan Bowman fired up for trip to Pittodrie

    After making his return from injury, Ryan Bowman is fired up and ready for a trip to take on Aberdeen.

    The striker, who has made a number of appearances off the bench in recent weeks, is biding his time. But as a group, he believes the Steelmen can take on any team in the country.

    “As players, we know that if we’re all on it, we can match anyone in this league,” he said.

    “We know what to expect from Aberdeen, it’ll be a tough game but one we’re ready for.”
