"Cementing their spot as one of Scotland's ultimate surprise packages this year, Jens Berthel Askou's men find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. Snatching a late 1-1 draw at home against Rangers earlier in the week, the Lanarkshire-based outfit currently sit in fourth-place and they should be smelling the chance to make another statement here. Signing off January with a 2-0 victory away at Livingston, Motherwell are unbeaten in all of their previous seven appearances across all competitions."
"As for the visitors, making an immediate return to losing ways last time out as they slumped to a routine 3-0 drumming away at Kilmarnock, Aberdeen find themselves at the heart of what has become a serious rut. Dropping into the bottom-half of the Premiership standings, interim boss Peter Leven has an almighty job on his hands. Getting the New Year underway with a 1-0 loss at the hands of Falkirk, Sunday's guests have lost five of their previous six Premiership appearances."
Motherwell have climbed to fourth place following a strong run of form and are unbeaten in seven matches across all competitions. The Steelmen have lost only once in the Premiership since mid-October and recorded notable results including a late 1-1 draw with Rangers, a 2-0 win at Livingston, and a 2-0 victory over Celtic on December 30. Motherwell are unbeaten in nine straight meetings at Fir Park (seven wins, two draws). Aberdeen have fallen into a slump, losing 3-0 at Kilmarnock, dropping into the bottom half, and losing five of their previous six Premiership matches while failing to score in those five defeats.
