It's game three of the group stage and Barry Robson's men are looking for their first victory of the section.
Hearts were taught a harsh lesson when they faced PAOK but Aberdeen will be aiming to avoid a Greek tragedy when they host the men from Thessaloniki at Pittodrie.
Barry Robson's Dons have just one point from Europa Conference League Group G, earned at home against HJK Helsinki in the last round and desperately need a victory as they reach the halfway stage of the section and look to secure European football beyond Christmas. Aberdeen's Scottish Premiership fixture against Dundee fell victim to Storm Babet at the weekend so will be rusty having not played since they played out a scoreless draw at home to St Johnstone on October 8 - but hopefully it's the Greeks who are caught cold in the north east. Can the Dons do it and help land a boost for Scotland's coefficient? We asked some of the Record Sport team to give their big predictions.
