Partick Seek Revenge Against ST Johnstone at Firhill

This Saturday, Firhill Stadium hosts a crucial Championship clash between Partick and ST Johnstone. The home side is favored to win, but ST Johnstone’s strong recent head-to-head record makes this a tough match to call.

Partick will be looking to bounce back from their heavy 5-1 defeat at the hands of ST Johnstone earlier this season. That loss will still be fresh in their minds, and they’ll be eager to prove themselves as a different team this time around.

Tactically, Partick might focus on nullifying ST Johnstone’s attacking threat, which has been potent in their past meetings. Expect them to start with a solid defensive setup, aiming to catch ST Johnstone on the counter-attack.

ST Johnstone, on the other hand, will be confident after their convincing win over Partick just a few months ago. They’ll likely stick to their tried-and-tested approach, pushing forward and testing the Partick defense.

The stats suggest this match could end in a draw, with both teams having a 35% chance of winning or sharing the points. ST Johnstone’s recent form has been decent, but Partick’s home advantage gives them an edge.

In terms of goals, expect a relatively low-scoring affair. The expected goals bands indicate that Partick might score around two goals, while ST Johnstone could manage fewer than four.

This match promises to be an intense and closely contested encounter. With Partick seeking revenge and ST Johnstone looking to build on their recent success, the stage is set for a thrilling Championship showdown at Firhill Stadium. Will Partick’s home advantage prove decisive, or can ST Johnstone pull off another impressive win? The odds suggest a double chance bet on Partick or a draw could be the way to go.
