Aberdeen set for Dens Park takeover as Dons handed two stands for Dundee clash The Dons are being handed an extra 1,500 tickets in the Main Stand, with all expected to be sold before Saturday's Premiership clash against Steven Pressley's side. Aberdeen fans have made a habit of taking a large away following across the country despite their turmoil on the pitch, but the feel-good factor is back among the Red Army. The unbeaten Dons are set to bring more than 4,000 fans to Tayside when they take on Steven Pressley's Dundee this weekend on the back of the late victory over Hearts. An initial allocation of 3,000 supporters is expected to sell out, with the final briefs in the Bob Shankly Stand due to be snapped up today. Now, a further 1,500 tickets in the Main Stand at Dens Park are being given to the Red Army – and all those tickets are expected to sell out before Saturday’s game, writes Record Sport. The Aberdeen support is back onside again after Stephen Robinson has made wholesale changes to his Dons’ squad over the summer and with it brought a real sense of anticipation. The no-nonsense manager has brought in Lewis Mayo, Brad Lyons, Marius Muller, Nesta Guinness-Walker, Dan Happe, Chris Cadden, Alex Briedl, Connor Ronan, Toyosi Olusanya, Lewis Smith, Tony Yogane and Ayoub Mouloua. Robinson had vowed to revamp his squad and build one that would consistently be in the top six, after last season’s bottom-end struggles. The feel-good factor at Pittodrie has been added to by their 100 per cent start to the new season. Aberdeen won all four games in the Premier Sports Cup. They won away at Brora Rangers and Queen of the South. They also beat Kelty Hearts and Queen’s Park at home to top their group and book a last 16 place at home to Dundee later this month. Aberdeen then opened their Premiership campaign with a dramatic late, comeback win over Hearts. They will be hoping for a similar run to a couple of seasons ago under previous boss Jimmy Thelin. They won 10 games out of 11 and the other game was a 2-2 draw at Celtic Park.
