This matchup will be a battle to establish which team stays in the relegation zone. Perhaps, it is a chance for the home team to free itself from the relegation bondage.
Ross County
This team has failed to win 14 of their last 15 Premiership league games. This puts them in a tight position since they have to win this home game and move a step up from the relegation zone. Ross County has not won 3 of their previous home games. The last home game against Hearts ended in a 1-1 draw, which we can say have been the best home performance for the team.
Patrick Thistle
This team is ahead of Ross County with 3 points only. Since they are having a lower goal difference as compared to Ross County, a loss in this away match could see then land the relegation zone. Thistle has failed to win their 18 out of their 19 away premiership matches. Additionally, this team has conceded at least 2 goals in their previous 3 matches. This clearly shows how easily their defensive line is infiltrated.
In the last five meetings, Patrick Thistle are dominant in 3 matches whereas 2 draws have been recorded.
Most of the encounters have been characterized by both teams being able to find the back of their opponent’s net.
Both teams will be striving to win in this game. The home team will outdo themselves to ensure their fans go home satisfied with a win. However, the away side has proven hard to defeat in previous matches. Thistle are the favorites to win this match. Nonetheless, both teams will defiantly score.
