Recent respective form guides

Inverness Caledonian Thistle's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Caley Thistle have scored 7, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Aberdeen's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The Dons's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 7 goals for and 6 against.

Inverness Caledonian Thistle are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 3 points from 5 matches.

Aberdeen see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 6 points from their 5 games played so far.
