The Aberdeen ticket office will facilitate a limited number of Motherwell ticket sales tomorrow at the stadium. 

Fans should go to the ticket office, which is located on the corner of Pittodrie Street & Golf Road. There is a window facing out towards Golf Road, and Aberdeen staff will facilitate from there, which will save Motherwell fans from having to come into the office and queue with everyone else.

Any uncollected tickets will be distributed from our SLO at the turnstile.

We wish everyone a safe journey to Aberdeen and want to once again thank you for your support.

Late summer signing Regan Charles-Cook is delighted to be back playing his football in Scotland, a place he is comfortable playing and has fond memories.

Charles-Cook is hoping to reach the semi-final at Hampden this weekend, a feat he is yet to manage in his career.

Matchday six of the 2025/26 SWPL campaign awaits the women of steel this weekend, as they return to South Lanarkshire to face Partick Thistle at K-Park. 

Motherwell face one of their closest league rivals in East Kilbride this weekend, after sharing a closely-fought battle for the final top-six place last season.

Motherwell sit one-point shy of the Jags in eighth after earning their first three points in the Lanarkshire derby against Hamilton almost a fortnight ago.

The Tale of the Tape 

Motherwell 

Motherwell will be determined to return to winning ways after conceding three-goals against Hearts in the Scottish capital last weekend.

Scotland under-17 internationals Lily Boyce and Orla Burn will both return to action after representing the national team in a double-header of friendlies against Finland last week. 

Paul Brownlie’s side head into the weekend, with almost a full squad, as Jenna Penman remains unavailable, and Amy Bulloch will potentially miss out.

Partick Thistle 

The Jags have endured a frustrating return to SWPL action this campaign, despite picking up their first victory on the opening weekend, with a narrow 2-1 victory against Hamilton. The Glasgow-side have since lost three, and drawn one, conceding 17-goals in their last four matchday’s. Thistle led league leaders Rangers for over 50-minutes after Rachel Donaldson’s early opener, but the hosts couldn’t sustain the Rangers attacking intent, conceding four in the second-half.

Jens Berthel Askou is grateful to another large following of Motherwell supporters that will make the long trip to Aberdeen, praising their loyalty and backing. The manager appreciates the trust the supporters have put in the players and staff. 

Askou offers a squad update and he also discusses his previous encounters with Aberdeen manager Jimmy Thelin.

Jens Berthel Askou provided an update on the squad, ahead of Saturday’s trip to Aberdeen in the Premier Sports Cup.

“Apostolos [Stamatelopoulos] is fine for Saturday,” Jens Berthel Askou said.

“There are a few injuries and some players out. Jordan McGhee, Eseosa Sule and Sam Nicholson will be back next year at some point. Jordan’s is a new injury and required surgery. I am gutted for him.

“Paul McGinn has had a little thing; he is close but probably won’t make it for the weekend. We have a couple of players who will be with us after the international break; it’s tight, but it’s probably going to be after with Tom Sparrow and Callum Slattery.

“Callum Hendry we’re monitoring, he’s been a little overloaded since he came. We will take a decision on when to put him in full training. We’re doing our best to get everyone back, but it’s a chance for other people to play and get minutes.”

Our Premier Sports Cup quarter-final match against Aberdeen will be shown live on Premier Sports.

Motherwell’s Fortunes

Motherwell stretched their unbeaten record in competitive matches to 12 on Saturday following the 1-1 draw with Dundee. However, it was the Steelmen’s sixth consecutive draw in the top-flight as Motherwell became the first side since Motherwell in 1975 to draw their opening five league matches.

Tawanda Maswanhise continued his scintillating form, however, scoring his seventh of the season and his third in consecutive matches.

Regan Charles-Cook made his first start for the club, with Stephen Welsh making his debut in defence following his loan switch from Celtic.

Opposition Report

Aberdeen drew 0-0 with Livingston in their last outing, as the Dons also remain winless in the Scottish Premiership. Despite not scoring in the league, there is plenty of cause for optimism in the Granite City.

Deadline Day signings for Stuart Armstrong and Jesper Karlsson, with the latter moving to Bologna for over ten million euros in 2023, bring quality to Jimmy Thelin’s squad. They were also boosted by the Deadline Day return of Kevin Nisbet following his successful loan stint last season from Millwall.

The Dons overcame Morton in the last round of the Premier Sports Cup and missed the group-stage due to their participation in the Europa League.

Motherwell travelled to Dundee knowing a draw would equal a record set back in 1973 for a team drawing six consecutive league matches, a record set by Motherwell themselves. 

Dundee were also hunting for their first league victory of the season, so the stakes were high in the City of Discovery.

In a first-half performance described by Jens Berthel Askou as one of the best of the season, Motherwell made the most of their dominance and got themselves in front through some individual brilliance from Tawanda Maswanhise, who scored for the third consecutive game.

Jens Berthel Askou also described the second-half as one of the worst he has seen since he arrived at Fir Park, and that half got off to the worst possible start, with Dundee levelling the game shortly after the half-time interval.

Despite a drop in performance levels, chances were still being created by the Steelmen, but they just couldn’t find the winner, even when Dundee were reduced to ten men in the final stages of the game.

As a result, the Steelmen became the first side this century to draw six straight Scottish Premiership matches, and the first team since 1975/76 to draw the opening five top-flight matches. However on the other side of the coin, are now unbeaten in 12 competitive games.

One to forget for the women of steel, as their visit to the Scottish capital ended in defeat, with Hearts comfortably earning three-points at a rainswept Oriam Performance Centre on Sunday. 

Head Coach Paul Brownlie made three changes from the side that defeated local rivals Hamilton in the Lanarkshire derby last weekend, with defender Shannon Leishman returning to the starting XI alongside Mason Clark in midfield, as Orla Burn watched from the stands – remaining ineligible to face her parent club. Skipper Gill Inglis also returned, with Sophie Black receiving a place amongst the substitutes. Midfielder Amy Bulloch missed out after sustaining an injury midweek. 

Academy graduates Hannah Cairns, Teoni Steele, Mia Gillespie, and first-team debutant Lia Young earned a place on the bench.

As the skies opened over the Scottish capital, Hearts’ fast-flowing start to proceedings put the hosts firmly in the ascendency on the soaking slick artificial surface. With 17-minutes on the clock, Carly John’s broke the deadlock for the Jambos, capitalising on a miscommunication in the Motherwell backline, before drilling home the rebound after striking the post on her initial effort.

Lauren Wade made it two in the following minutes, cutting inside from the left flank before curling home a precise finish into the top-right corner. Goalkeeper Rebecca Cameron managed to get a fingertip to the strike, but could only deflect the ball off the crossbar before nestling into the back of the net.

Eilidh Shore rounded off the evening in the early stages of the second-half, with Motherwell having to pick up the pieces before facing Partick Thistle at k-Park next weekend.
