Robbie Neilson believes the Pittodrie factor could be key in Aberdeen securing their first Conference League win tonight.

The Dons, currently on one point, host Armenians FC Noah on matchday four.

"I think it will be tough night because teams in the Armenian Premier League have a lot of investment," said former Hearts and Dundee United boss Neilson on the BBC's Scottish Football Podcast.

"It'll be a difficult one for Aberdeen. But the atmosphere at Pittodrie, I hope the fans come and really make some noise because a lot of the time Noah are playing in front of maybe 3,000 fans per week, whereas coming to Pittodrie it could be 15,000.

"That could be a real advantage for Aberdeen and I think they need the fans behind them. A good start could see them win the game, but it'll be tough."
