Both Teams to Score odds (or other appropriate odds)

• Predicted lineup: George, King, Gogić, Freckleton, Richardson, Phillips, Donelly, Idowu, John, Mandron, Ayunga

St. Mirren will rely on their solid backline of Gogić, Freckleton and King to keep Aberdeen's attack at bay. Up front, Mandron and Ayunga will look to exploit any defensive lapses with their pace and finishing.

• Predicted lineup: Mitov, Devlin, Milne, Knoester, Jensen, Shinnie, Armstrong, Gyamfi, Aouchiche, Karlsson, Nisbet

Aberdeen's defence, led by Milne and Knoester, will need to be on top form to handle St. Mirren's counter-attacks. In attack, Nisbet and Karlsson will be key to breaking down St. Mirren's stubborn defence.

• Declan John vs Emmanuel Gyamfi: This will be a crucial battle between St. Mirren's attacking full-back and Aberdeen's promising young star.

• Roland Idowu vs Jesper Karlsson: Idowu's midfield control will be tested by Karlsson's creativity and work rate.

• Killian Phillips (St. Mirren): Phillips' energy and goal threat from midfield could be vital for St. Mirren's chances.

• Stuart Armstrong (Aberdeen): Armstrong's experience and ability to unlock defences make him a key player for Aberdeen.
