EURO hero Jack Milne admits Aberdeen are out for revenge against Motherwell this afternoon.

The Dons return to domestic action against the Steelmen at Pittodrie this afternoon after a battling draw at AEK Larnaca in the Conference League.

Well knocked the Dons out of the Premier Sports Cup this season and also took all three points as Aberdeen suffered a late collapse at Fir Park.

And Milne said: “That last game at Motherwell was especially tough to take.

“We put in a good performance until the last few minutes - then ended up losing, which was disappointing. So, yes, we're due to give them one.”

Aberdeen have kept three clean sheets in their last four Premiership games to move up the table.

They were able to take that defensive reliability into the European arena as they kept clipped the wings of early Conference League pacesetters Larnaca.
