Partick Thistle vs Aberdeen
Scottish Premiership
Date: Saturday, 10th March 2018
Kick-off at 15:00 UK/ 16:00 CET
Venue: Firhill Stadium (Glasgow).

This is a match between a high flying Aberdeen and a struggling Patrick Thistle. It may be an easy game for the away team if they remain focused.

Team Analysis

Patrick Thistle

Thistle’s current woes are as a result of their inability to win in their last 4 league matches. This has expressly taken them to only 3 point away from the relegation zone. Although it is completely impossible for them to come out of this game with any point, they will strive to impress their home fans. Thistle is coming into this match having lost their last league game against Hamilton last weekend.

Thistle will do their best in order to seal their net from the Aberdeen men but I can’t guarantee they will stay put until the final whistle.

Aberdeen

Aberdeen is closing up the top three teams list with 52 points. This is after 2 consecutive losses against Hibernians and Celtic. They will be aiming to beat the home side and close up the gap between them and the second place Rangers. However, a win in this away matchup will not guarantee them the second spot since they are currently short of goals.

Aberdeen has conceded at least 2 goals in their last 4 away premiership matches. This clearly points out their weak defensive lines in away matches. I expect this to be an easy game for Aberdeen against a weaker side, Patrick Thistle.

Partick Thistle vs Aberdeen: Head-to-head

Aberdeen remains the dominant side in all their 6 encounters with Patrick Thistle.

Most of their H2H matches have seen Aberdeen keep a clean sheet. However, Thistle are able to score against Aberdeen when at home.

Partick Thistle vs Aberdeen: Prediction

I believe this match won’t be different to all the H2H. Aberdeen will outdo the home team and go home with the 3 points. However, the home team will definitely get the back of Aberdeen’s net.
