Aberdeen play host to St Mirren on Wednesday evening looking to defend their two-point advantage in the race for third position in the Scottish Premiership standings. Meanwhile, St Mirren make the long trip to Pittodrie looking to overtake Hibernian with fifth place the best that they can realistically achieve come the end of the week.
On the back of seven straight wins, everything was set up for Aberdeen to ruthlessly get over the line when it comes to achieving third place. However, collecting just one point from a triple-header with Rangers, Hibernian and Hearts has put Barry Robson’s side at risk of relinquishing the bronze-medal position.
The difference between third and fourth is beginning a qualifying round deeper in the Europa Conference League, as well as not having to play a competitive fixture a further two weeks into the season.
Both factors make it worthwhile for Aberdeen to put everything into bouncing back from their 2-1 defeat their nearest rivals Hearts, who came from behind to win 2-1 at Tynecastle at the weekend. With a trip to champions Celtic to come on the final day, it leaves Aberdeen aware of the significance of winning on Wednesday, particularly when Hearts possess a superior goal difference.

Connor Barron may drop out of the midfield three, but that could prove to be the only change to the side depending on the fitness of Duk.
