Aberdeen have the chance to move five points clear in the Ladbrokes Premiership when they welcome Hamilton Accies to Pittodrie this evening.

Aberdeen have the chance to move five points clear in the Ladbrokes Premiership when they welcome Hamilton Accies to Pittodrie this evening.

Derek McInnes' men have made a club record start to the new season, with six wins out of six - the latest of which saw them come from behind to knock Celtic off top spot with a 2-1 victory.

Keeper Danny Ward, on loan from Liverpool, has conceded just two goals so far and the Dons are chasing a seventh straight success ahead of Sunday's match against Hearts at Tynecastle on Sunday, which is live on Sky Sports at 2.15pm.

Accies head north on the back of a 4-1 defeat at St Johnstone but that is one of only two league losses suffered by Martin Canning's team, who are currently sixth in the table.

Hamilton won the first meeting between the teams last season - 3-0 at New Douglas Park in October - but Aberdeen responded with two 3-0 victories of their own and also came out on top in a League Cup tie.

Aberdeen winger Jonny Hayes is available to play this evening despite being sent off against Celtic as the club have lodged an appeal.
