St Mirren's search for a first away point of the season continues after the Buddies fell to a 2-1 loss at Pittodrie this afternoon.

Jon Obika's third goal for Saints got Jim Goodwin's side level after Sam Cosgrove had given the home side an early lead. Niall McGinn put the hosts in front for a second time 10 minutes into the second-half, but the Buddies spurned a glorious chance to grab a share of the spoils when Tony Andreu missed a penalty with just six minutes remaining. 

Saints, without a win at Pittodrie in eight years, could have found themselves one up with less than a minute on the clock. Obika held the ball up and knocked forward to the returning Andreu whose neat touch allowed Sam Foley to run on to the ball deep in the Aberdeen half. The Englishman fed the ball over the Dons defence to find Andreu inside the box with the Frenchman's effort pushed away by Aberdeen goalkeeper Joe Lewis.

But despite the bright start Saints found themselves behind on six minutes. A weak header from Sean McLoughlin fell invitingly for Sam Cosgrove who, with time and space, made no mistake from 15 yards as he slammed high into the net to put Aberdeen 1-0 ahead. 

The Saints reaction was good with Kyle Magennis forcing Joe Lewis into a save at his near post on 13 minutes, but the home side had a couple of chances in quick succession with Cosgrove slicing wide after running on to meet a Greg Leigh knock down, while Lewis Ferguson should have doubled the Dons advantage when he met a pinpoint Zak Vyner cross but somehow nodded wide from just a few yards out. 

And just moments after that miss from Ferguson, Saints found themselves level. Ryan Flynn did brilliantly to charge into the box from the right hand side. He played a low ball across the face of goal where it met Obika who touched home from close range. 

The 352 travelling fans were in fine voice following the goal and Saints were on top for the rest of the first-half. Another low ball into the box from Flynn's knocked wide by Leigh for a corner on 31 minutes. It was the midfielder who took the corner with MacKenzie rises highest to nod just over the bar.  

Calum Waters put in a brilliant ball into the box a few moments later when Saints were awarded a free-kick after Sam Foley was fouled. McLoughlin got his head on it but sent wide. 

Saints were having their best spell of the match so far but the Dons showed how dangerous they could be with Waters having to be switched on to clear a Cosgrove header off the line. 

Aberdeen started the opening stages of second-half the stronger of the two sides and took the lead for a second time on 56 minutes. From a Saints point it was a frustrating goal to concede with an unmarked Niall McGinn having all the time in the world to slam home to put Aberdeen 2-1 in front.

The St Mirren reaction was good though and the Buddies could have levelled just two minutes after the Dons second goal. Obika headed Foley's ball in across the face of goal where Magennis just couldn't get a toe on it at the far post. 

Andreu should have levelled for Saints with 15 minutes remaining. The Frenchman was met in space inside the box by Foley but didn't catch it properly as it clipped over. 

Andreu again spurned a brilliant chance to equalise for Saints when he missed from the penalty spot on 84 minutes. Obika had gotten on to a ball into the box and as he tried to round Joe Lewis to tap home into an empty net he was pulled back by the English goalkeeper. Despite appearing to make no genuine attempt to win the ball Lewis was only booked and guessed correctly to push away Andreu's spot-kick before saving the Frenchman's follow-up effort.

Saints manager Jim Goodwin reflects on the Buddies' narrow loss to Aberdeen in the Ladbrokes Premiership this afternoon.

St Mirren make the trip up the A90 as Jim Goodwin's side get set to take on Aberdeen in the Ladbrokes Premiership.

FORM

St Mirren - LWLLLW

Aberdeen - DWWWLW

The Buddies are still looking for their first point on the road this season having lost in seven away matches in the league. 

Saints last away win was on 18th May when Cody Cooke's second-half hat-trick gave the Buddies a 3-2 win over Dundee at Dens Park.

Jim Goodwin's side face Aberdeen tomorrow following a narrow 2-1 loss against Hibernian at the Simple Digital Arena on Tuesday night. Junior Morias pulled a late goal back for the Buddies but it wasn't enough to avoid a first home defeat since August. 

A 2-1 win over Ross County last week moved Saints off the bottom of the table and up to 10th place. The Buddies are one of four teams currently tied on 11 points in the league with Hamilton and St Johnstone in 11th and 12th place behind Saints on goal difference, while Hearts are in ninth due to their superior goal difference. 

Third place Aberdeen come into the match on the back of a 1-1 draw with St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park on Sunday. Sam Cosgrove gave Derek McInnes' side a first-half lead, but St Johnstone, who ended the match with just nine men, levelled with just over 10 minutes remaining to take a share of the spoils. 

That draw halted a three match winning run for the Dons who had seen off Ross County (3-1), Kilmarnock (3-0) and Hamilton (1-0). 

Indeed their only loss in their last seven matches came against Celtic - losing 4-0 at Pittodrie to the league leaders in October.  

PREVIOUS

Saints last faced Aberdeen in August with Ilkay Durmus' early strike giving the Buddies their first win against Aberdeen 

The Buddies also took a point the last time they travelled to Aberdeen with Duckens Nazon and Kyle McAllister scoring in a 2-2 draw at Pittodrie in February.

Aberdeen's last win against Saints was in December of last year when Stevie May and Sam Cosgrove scored either side of Cammy MacPherson's first St Mirren goal to give the Dons a 2-1 victory. 

St Mirren's last league win at Pittodrie came in May 2011 as Gareth Wardlaw's second-half strike secured Premiership survival for Saints.

TEAM NEWS

Kirk Broadfoot remains out for Saints, but everyone else is available.

Craig Bryson could miss out for the Dons after taking a knock in Sunday's draw with St Johnstone, while loanee Zak Vyner is expected to return to the squad.

MANAGER'S THOUGHTS

"Right through the spine of the team they have quite a physical presence. They've also got players in the wide areas, the likes of Niall McGinn & Ryan Hedges and one or two others, that can definitely cause you problems.

"But I do think that Aberdeen have areas in their team that we can get at as well. It's not a case of us going up there and being backs to the wall for 90 minutes. 

"If we can take confidence from what we did in the previous game against them we won't be far away I don't think."

Junior Morias' first St Mirren goal wasn't enough to prevent the Buddies falling to a frustrating defeat at home to Hibernian. 

Saints created numerous chances throughout the 90 minutes but it was goals either side of half-time from Christian Doidge and substitute Stevie Mallan that gave the visitors a narrow 2-1 win.

The Buddies started on the front foot with Ilkay Durmus had the first half-chances - sending well wide from distance on four minutes before slipping on the edge of the box a few minutes later and seeing his resultant effort trickle wide. 

Saints had the best chance of the match on 24 minutes when a brilliant ball in from Calum Waters on the left-hand side met Kyle Magennis in the box. The midfielder rose the highest but headed over from six yards. 

Two minutes later it was Durmus' turn to send a pinpoint cross in from the same position as Waters. The Turkish winger's ball found Ryan Flynn at the back post. Flynn's effort was blocked with Sean McLoughlin screwing a header wide from the resultant corner.

And despite Saints' chances it was Hibernian who took the lead just two minutes later. Christian Doidge kept his good run of goalscoring form for the visitors when he headed the opener from ex-Saint Jason Naismith's cross. It appeared to take a slight deflection off the head of Gary MacKenzie as it looped over Vaclav Hladky. 

Jon Obika should have gone one-on-one with Maxwell five minutes after Hibernian's opener when the ball fell kindly into his path, but the big striker got the ball caught up in his feet and could only win a corner. Saints continued to force a lot of pressure before the end of the half - winning a number of corners but failing to create any danger from them. 

The Buddies started the second-half strongly and had a penalty appeal turned down on 55 minutes when Sam Foley went down in the box. Referee Alan Newlands was unmoved. 

With around 25 minutes of the game remaining Jim Goodwin made his first change with Danny Mullen coming on in place of Durmus. The substitute was presented with a great chance to equalise just a few minutes after taking to the field when the ball fell to him in space inside the box but he blasted over from a tight angle. 

Three minutes later the striker went agonisingly close to bringing Saints level. A strong tackle from MacKenzie deep in the St Mirren half sent the Buddies scurrying forward on the counter. Mullen picked the ball up on the left, cut inside and curled low towards the far post. It looked like it was heading in all day long but cracked off the post before the offside flag denied Obika on the follow up. 

There were just under 10 minutes to go when Hibernian were awarded a penalty after MacKenzie fouled Martin Boyle inside the Saints box. There was no debating the referee's decision and former Buddie Stevie Mallan stepped up to double the visitors lead.

Saints kept at Hibernian as they searched for a way back into the match. Sam Foley, man of the match on the evening, went so close to added to his goal on Saturday after a terrific solo run which saw him curl just wide of Maxwell's far post. 

The Buddies would get a goal back in the first minute of stoppage time. Neat footwork from Mullen saw the striker get a shot away on the edge of the area. Maxwell was equal to it but it fell for substitute Junior Morias who slammed home to score his first St Mirren goal. Unfortunately for Saints it was too little too late as Hibernian took the points back to Edinburgh.
