Match preview

It’s been a truly catastrophic week for Rangers, needing to win at Pittodrie to prevent this blip from igniting into a full-blown crisis.

Last weekend, the Light Blues were demolished 4-0 at Celtic Park in the first Old Firm of the season.

The visitors were 3-0 down by half time, before Jon McLaughlin gifted Celtic a fourth.

So, already, Rangers are five points adrift the leaders.

Then, on Wednesday night, the Bears made their long-await Champions League group stage return, 12 years in the making.

However, you couldn’t escape the feeling of déjà vu as, for the second time in four days, Rangers were hammered 4-0.

Ajax scored thrice in the first half at Johan Cruyff Arena, in truth it could’ve been seven or eight, before sealing the points towards the end.

Coming up on Tuesday, the Gers welcome a Napoli side who’ve just walloped Liverpool 4-1 to Ibrox.

Before then, Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s team cannot afford anything less than a victory here.

Aberdeen though are fully aware that if they claim all three points, they’ll go level with their visitors in the table.

The Dons had won back-to-back Premiership games, before slipping up in Dingwall last weekend.

Luís Lopes spectacular overhead kick just two minutes from time had seemingly snatched the point, only for Ross County to equalise in the final minute of injury time.

Nevertheless, it’s been a solid start to the season for Jim Goodwin’s team, but is it about to get even better?
