Motherwell v Aberdeen - Preview


By Well Talk

Aberdeen are the visitors to Fir Park this Tuesday for the re-arranged SPL match.



The original fixture was cancelled after heavy snowfall made the pitch waterlogged.


Motherwell have no fresh injury concerns for the visit of the Sheep so Terry Butcher could start with the same eleven which beat Kilmarnock at the weekend. The Manager said " It was good to get the win on Saturday and it's up to us now to keep that going. The incentive is there to get more points and that's what we have to try to do. "


" There are usually a few goals when we play Aberdeen but the games tend to be quite close. "


Steve Paterson has two players doubtful for Tuesday, Kevin McNaughton missed Aberdeen's 2 - 0 win over Dunfermline with a leg injury and he could remain on the sidelines while Phil McGuire is also set to miss out after he picked up a knock at the weekend.


Motherwell have reduced the admission prices to a tenner for Adults and a fiver for concessions.
