Aberdeen vs Celtic LIVE as Brendan Rodgers produces a surprise among shocks at Pittodrie

In a week and a half these two teams will be slugging it out at Hampden for the final piece of silverware of the season.

But tonight, Aberdeen take on Celtic with the stakes only high for one side at least. Celtic have of course already wrapped up the title, their fourth in a row. This clash at Pittodrie means little to them. But for Jimmy Thelin’s men, third place is still possible and so it means everything.

But they will need to beat Brendan Rodgers’ Treble chasers and give them some belief ahead of the Scottish Cup Final on May 24. Gulp.

Because there may be well sort of that. Hammered by Rangers last week. Skelped by Celtic in February. The Dons tend to fold badly.

Celtic, meanwhile, just keep on motoring and will be keen to hand out another reminder of why they are champions and such big favourites to land the Treble.

It promises to be an intriguing encounter in the North-East and may give some pointers ahead of that Hampden showpiece.

Aberdeen: Mitov, Jensen, Dorrington, Knoester, Shinnie, Palaversa, Clarkson, Morris, Gueye, Keskinen, Nisbet Subs: Doohan, Devlin, MacKenzie, McGrath, Polvara, Dabbagh, Okkels, Milne, Boyd.

Brendan Rodgers has made eight changes fom the weekend. It is clear he wants to give very little away ahead of the Scottish Cup final. Big chance for some of his squad and for Jonny Kenny, who impressed at Shamrock Rovers.

Aberdeen need to win and Jimmy Thelin has gone with arguably his strongest side. The Swede has made six changes from Ibrox. That is the spine of the team
