Aberdeen can climb up to 4th place in the Premiership this evening, if they can get an away victory over St Mirren.

Although Stephen Glass's men beat the Buddies 4-1 at Pittodrie last month, they suffered a 3-2 defeat on their last visit to Paisley, having allowed their hosts to come from behind following the 51st minute dismissal of Teddy Jenks.

Glass is braced for a tough encounter but wants Aberdeen to apply pressure to those around them in the battle for Europe.

Aberdeen have been running the rule over Ross McCrorie after the defender went off at half-time against Edinburgh City at the weekend.

New signing Vicente Besuijen is awaiting a visa before being able to make his Dons debut.

Marley Watkins, Mikey Devlin and Andy Considine are all still out, while American midfielder Dante Polvara is still waiting for his introduction to Scottish football.
