How to watch Aberdeen v Rangers
Familiar foes Aberdeen and Rangers square off in the Scottish Premiership for the second time in four days at Pittodrie on Sunday.
The two sides met at Ibrox on Tuesday evening with Rangers running out 2-0 winners thanks to first-half set-piece headers from Emmanuel Fernandez and Nico Raskin.
The victory moved Danny Rohl’s side above Celtic up to second place in the table, within three points of leaders Hearts, to cement their status as title contenders.
It was a 10th win in 13 league matches for Rohl since his appointment with the German overseeing a major turnaround since taking over from the sacked Russell Martin in October.
Managerless Aberdeen will again have caretaker boss Peter Leven in charge as the search continues for Jimmy Thelin’s permanent successor. Leven was installed as interim manager after the Swede was sacked following the 1-0 defeat at Falkirk last weekend which left the Dons eighth in the table.
A victory could take Aberdeen back inside the top six with favourable results elsewhere.
