Jimmy Thelin has named his Aberdeen XI for this evening’s Scottish Premiership clash with Celtic. The Dons held Celtic at Celtic Park back in October, coming from 2-0 down to snatch a 2-2 draw. However, since then, Celtic beat Aberdeen 6-0 at Hampden and then 1-0 at Pittodrie as the Pittodrie club were sent on a downward spiral.
Thelin will be targeting another result at Celtic Park and has named a defensive set up.
Aberdeen: Doohan, Jensen, Knoester, Tobers, MacKenzie, Nilsen, Shinnie, Keskinen, Okkels, Dabbagh, Nisbet.
Subs: Mitov, Clarkson, Gueye, Palaversa, Morris, Dorrington, Boyd, Ambrose, Enem.
Meanwhile, Brendan Rodgers has made three changes from the side that lost at Easter Rd as he demands a reaction from the weekend. Jefferey Schlupp, Reo Hatate and Jota come into the team at the expense of Greg Taylor, Luke McCowan and Adam Idah.
Celtic: Schmeichel, Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Trusty, Schlupp, McGregor, Hatate, Engels, Kühn, Maeda, Jota.
Subs: Sinisalo, Scales, Idah, Yang, McCowan, Kenny, Murray, Ralston, Bonnar.
