Fixtures Set Up Champions League Showdown

Last updated : 23 March 2007 By Stand Free Ed
The post-split fixtures have been released, and they have given the Dons a great shot at Europe.

Aberdeen will have three home games, against Hibernian, Kilmarnock and second place rivals Rangers.

The away games are against champions-elect Celtic and Hearts.

Setanta has announced that the Reds will be on live TV at least twice after the split, when they play the Edinburgh clubs.

The Irish broadcaster has not named the game they will show on the final day, but it is highly likely to be the showdown with Rangers at Pittodrie.

If results go the right way, the Dons will be going toe-to-toe with the Gers to decide the SPL's second Champions league place.
