Summary

Aberdeen achieved a 3-0 victory over Dundee in the League Cup, securing a place in the quarter-finals. Kevin Nisbet continued his scoring streak, bringing his season total to nine goals, which could enhance his chances for a Scotland recall under new manager Sebastian Pocognoli. The Dons' momentum may be tested as their upcoming match against Motherwell is postponed due to European commitments. Aberdeen's next league match is scheduled against Rangers on August 27.

What they're saying

"
In his pre-match interview on Saturday's Sportsound, you could sense Stephen Robinson had been irked by the week-long reaction to the league defeat in Dundee as he led Aberdeen into the last eight of the League Cup against the same opponents. Yes, Dundee had opportunities, but the Dons were well worth their 3-0 victory that set up a quarter-final in Kilmarnock next month. Robinson will probably be frustrated this weekend's game at Fir Park has been postponed due to Motherwell's European commitments as he tries to build momentum in the league with the Dons' next outing against Rangers on Sunday week.
