Aberdeen snapped a six-game winless run with a 6-2 victory over Livingston at Pittodrie. Kevin Nisbet and Topi Keskinen both scored twice, with the hosts ultimately securing a commanding result despite a chaotic match that saw both teams finish with 10 men.

The game turned on a dramatic first-half stoppage time. Nisbet's quickfire double, following an early opener from Kenan Bilalovic, overturned a two-goal deficit from Livingston. The visitors had levelled through Mahamadou Susoho and Robbie Muirhead, but Aberdeen's resilience proved key.

The second half descended into controversy. Livingston manager David Martindale was sent to the stands, followed by red cards for Aberdeen's Jack Milne and Livi's Jeremy Bokila after a shoving match. Aberdeen then capitalised, with Sivert Heltne Nilsen and Keskinen sealing the win.
