Chris Sutton responds to Robbie Savage’s drive regarding Aberdeen’s title challenge to Celtic. Celtic supporters are eagerly anticipating the commencement of domestic football action, as the international break is currently underway.

 

After Celtic’s victory at Kilmarnock, it appears that Aberdeen’s challenge will persist for an additional period, as Jimmy Thelin’s team defeated Dundee 4-1 on Saturday night.

 

 

Brendan Rodgers will face a challenging sequence of Celtic fixtures following the conclusion of the international break, including Hearts, Ross County, and Aberdeen at Pittodrie. Following Celtic’s victory at Rugby Park yesterday, Robbie Savage enquired of Chris Sutton regarding Aberdeen’s challenge and whether they could continue to impede Celtic’s title defence.

 

 

The title verdict is delivered by Chris Sutton, with Robbie Savage’s unusual prompting. After the match, an English football fan called Sutton’s program and stated that it appears that Celtic is the only team in Scotland capable of winning

and this exchange with Savage was initiated when Sutton concurred with the caller. Savage stated on BBC 606 [23m], “Aberdeen.” Chris, are you dismissing Aberdeen? Sutton: “Hello, what do you require?” Savage enquires, “Are you dismissing Aberdeen?” Sutton: “No, no.” Rob, it is an exceptional narrative. Savage:

 

 

“Anthony [the caller to the show] just stated that, of course, no one else is winning anything up there.” and you responded, “Yes, that is a valid point.” Have you excluded Aberdeen? Sutton: “I believe Celtic will emerge victorious in the league.” Savage: “Oh, so you have disqualified Aberdeen?

 

 

” You are an avid supporter of Scottish football, so you have effectively eliminated Aberdeen, correct? Sutton: “In reference to the championship race?” Robbie, I believe there is a title contest underway. You must show respect to the opposing team, but I believe Celtic will emerge victorious.

Aberdeen’s subsequent three matches prior to Celtic’s arrival Aberdeen has three additional fixtures to contend with prior to Celtic’s visit to Pittodrie on December 4th.

 

The Paisley club is currently in sixth place in the Scottish Premiership table and their initial fixture following the international break is a challenging away journey to St Mirren.

 

The Lin travel to Edinburgh three days later to confront a Hibs team that is currently in a state of disarray and is at the bottom of the division. They are in dire need of some points.

 

Then, on December 1, Aberdeen will face another challenging match at Tynecastle in Edinburgh as Neil Critchley’s team endeavours to improve from their current position at the bottom of the division.

 

Celtic will be the last team on Aberdeen’s mind, as they have several challenging games ahead of them. However, if they are to maintain a title challenge, the Edinburgh clubs could present a significant challenge.
