Competition: Scottish Championship

Market: Patrick Thistle win

Odds: 4/5 @ Pribet

Two camps who find themselves scrapping it out at opposite ends of the Championship standings, Partick Thistle will welcome Ross County to the Firhill Stadium on Friday night.

Starting with the hosts, last seen putting in another gritty performance as they secured a 2-0 victory away at Raith, Partick Thistle are pencilled in as a standout promotion contender in 2026. Opening Friday’s showdown sat in silver medal position, Mark Wilson’s men will be looking to make another statement here. Despite watching their Scottish Cup adventure come to an end earlier in the month as they slumped to a 2-1 loss at the hands of St. Mirren, it appears that result was just a minor blip for the Jags. In fact, the one-time Celtic defender has seen his squad get hit with just a single defeat from any of their previous 12 appearances across all competitions – a run that stems back to January 9th. Smelling another opportunity this weekend, Friday’s hosts should also be excited by their continued success on home soil. The Championship promotion contenders have not suffered a single defeat in front of their own supporters within 90 minutes since the end of September.

As for the visitors, opening Friday’s showdown sat five points adrift in the relegation play-off place, Ross County have rightfully come under a huge amount of scrutiny this season. Facing the real prospect of suffering consecutive relegations, Stuart Kettlewell’s side look set for what is another stern examination here. Eventually forced to settle for a 2-2 stalemate at home against Dunfermline last time out, the Staggies have claimed just a single win from any of their previous seven Championship appearances. Including a 3-0 drumming against Dunfermline earlier in the month, Friday’s guests have also gained a reputation for their struggles on the road. Including a 1-0 loss against St. Johnstone in their last showdown away from Victoria Park, Ross County have also lost their previous two trips to Partick Thistle. Two camps who find themselves scrapping it out at opposite ends of the Championship standings, we are backing a home victory this weekend.
