Aberdeen will be hoping to make the most of home advantage when they welcome Hacken to Pittodrie in Thursday’s UEFA Europa Conference League qualifier.

Aberdeen vs Hacken team news

New signings Jack Gurr, Teddy Jenks, Scott Brown, Christian Ramirez  and Jay Emmanuel-Thomas are all in line for debuts, although Declan Gallagher will have to wait for his as he serves a suspension following the red card he picked up in Motherwell’s 3-0 Europa League defeat to Hapoel Beer-Sheva last summer.

Delaho Irandust is available once again after making a match-winning return from injury in Friday’s victory over Norrkoping, while new signing Samuel Gustafson is also in contention following his arrival from Torino.

Aberdeen vs Hacken preview

This tie looked a lot less ominous for the Dons when it was made a month ago, with the Swedish side sitting rock bottom of the Allsvenskan.

However, the appointment of Per-Mathias Hogmo has had a galvanising effect, with the veteran Norwegian manager overseeing three wins from three league matches.

That extra match sharpness could prove a major advantage over their Scottish counterparts, who have been forced to cancel pre-season friendlies against Cove Rangers and Reading due to Covid outbreaks in the opposition camps.

Aberdeen vs Hacken tips & predictions

In strong form and with more match practice under their belts, draw no bet odds of 6/5 (2.20) seem generous on Hacken spoiling the party against a new-look Aberdeen team.
