Celtic Watch: Aberdeen Could Hand Hoops the Title in Clash with Rangers
The buzz around the Scottish Premiership has hit fever pitch as Aberdeen face off against Rangers in a high-stakes clash at Pittodrie. But this isn’t just about three points — this is a game with ripple effects. If Aberdeen manage to beat Rangers, Celtic will be crowned champions. That’s the level of intensity this fixture is packing today.
Now, let’s talk form. Aberdeen have found a spark again, winning two league games back-to-back for the first time since early in the season. They’re coming off a solid 1-0 win over Ross County and seem to have their rhythm back under manager Jimmy Thelin. The Dons are unbeaten in their last three home games against Rangers, winning two and drawing one. And if they manage to clinch this one, it'll be the first time they’ve beaten Rangers in consecutive home matches since 2006. That stat alone gives this match some nostalgic weight.

Rangers, on the other hand, come into the match juggling multiple priorities. After a hard-fought European outing against Athletic Bilbao just days ago, interim manager Barry Ferguson has decided to ring in the changes — nine in total. It’s a bold move, but he sees it as an opportunity for the fringe players who’ve been, in his words, “chapping my door.” One of those names making headlines today is Connor Barron, a former Don, now captaining Rangers. That’s bound to stir the pot at Pittodrie, and you can bet the Aberdeen faithful will let him hear it.
This version of Rangers looks different, fresher, maybe even experimental, but they still carry a threat. They've won five away games in a row, scoring at least three in each of those matches. But this is Pittodrie. And this is a Rangers side missing key names like Sterling, Yilmaz, and Raskin. So, the question is: can this reshuffled squad handle the pressure?
Meanwhile, Aberdeen know what’s at stake. They’re locked in a tight battle for third with Hibs and Dundee United, and three points here could be the push they need to stay ahead. For Jimmy Thelin’s men, the strategy is clear: keep the momentum, stay sharp, and exploit the uncertainty in the Rangers lineup.
The match kicks off at 12:00 BST and you can feel the energy pulsing through the stadium. It’s more than just Aberdeen vs Rangers — it’s about pride, position, and potentially, a title-deciding moment. One slip from Rangers, and Celtic will be raising a glass to their rivals’ downfall. You couldn’t script it better.
Let’s see who blinks first.
