After returning to winning ways in Istanbul on Thursday, Saturday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me head to the Scottish Premiership, and I’ve highlighted one side to score at least twice.
⚽️ Ross County vs Aberdeen
🏴 Premiership
⏰ Saturday 31 August, 17:45
Aberdeen will look to maintain their perfect start to the season as they travel to Dingwall to take on Ross County in a fixture that I’m keen to back the visitors to strike at least twice.
Jimmy Thelin could not have made a better start to life as Aberdeen boss, with his new side winning each of their opening eight Premiership and League Cup matches, seeing them sit joint-top of the Premiership table and into the quarter-finals of the League Cup.
The Dons began their Premiership campaign with a comfortable 1-2 victory away at St Johnstone before back-to-back wins at Pittodrie over St Mirren and Kilmarnock – scoring five goals in the process.
Despite a poor season last term, The Dons W4-D1-L0 against Ross County in both league and cup, scoring 2+ goals in all five of their meetings, including in their three visits to Dingwall.
After topping their League Cup group by winning each of their four group-stage matches against lower-league opposition, Ross County then went on to begin their Premiership campaign with back-to-back draws away at Motherwell and at home to Dundee United.
However, The Staggies then suffered a shock League Cup exit by losing 1-0 away at League Two side Spartans before being thrashed 6-0 at Hampden last week against Rangers.
Bet of the Day
The Dons have scored 23 goals across their opening eight competitive fixtures this term – striking on multiple occasions in seven (88%) of them, including in each of their opening three league outings – and I’m backing them to bag another double against a Staggies defence that was thrashed 6-0 by Rangers last weekend.
What’s more, Don Cowie’s hosts are without a clean sheet in each of their previous 12 Scottish Premiership matches in front of their supporters, shipping multiple goals in six (50%) of them.
