Two sides with contrasting results square off at the Pittodrie Stadium as a high-flying Kilmarnock face a struggling Aberdeen in the Scottish FA Cup quarter-finals.
Aberdeen have struggled heavily in the Scottish Premiership as they are hovering in the bottom half of the table. The side would be hoping to earn confidence from their victory against Bonnyrigg Rose in the previous round.
Kilmarnock, on the other hand, defeated Cove Rangers in the fifth round scoring two scintillating goals without reply. With the Killies on a streak of three consecutive victories against Aberdeen, the visitors would be hoping to extend this record once again.
