Ross Tierney hopes a win over Aberdeen can kick-start Motherwell’s season just like it did back in August.The Dons visit Fir Park this afternoon, keen to avenge a 3-2 defeat up at Pittodrie on August 13, in a game that underlined boss Stevie Hammell’s credentials, leading to him being handed the manager’s job at Motherwell.That win, with goals from Blair Spittall Callum Slattery and Kevin van Veen, gave the Steelmen a real boost, and after four defeats in five games this month, Tierney hopes three points can have a similar effect.The Dublin-born midfielder said: “Aberdeen are on a good run.
They’ve had a few slip-ups themselves, but we’ve got to focus on ourselves and we know we can get the result.“I think the last time we played it was one of our best performances this season and hopefully we can do the same again.“Hopefully it kick-starts our season again.“We’re a little bit into the season now, but I think that performance showed how well we can play.“I think there was a little bit of doubt about the gaffer, but I think that showed that he’s ready for this level, as well as the players.”Tierney, 21,says talisman Kevin van Veen can hopefully play a major part against Aberdeen this afternoon, with the Dutch striker having scored five times in the last five games against the Dons.That’s also an unbeaten run that Motherwell enjoy against today’s opponents, stretching back to a 2-0 Pittodrie defeat on January 23, 2021, with four wins and a draw to their name.Tierney said: “I think Kev likes playing against Aberdeen – he always scores, so hopefully he gets another few goals.“Everything in the dressing room is positive.
