While the hosts are seeking to secure promotion to the top flight for the first time in five years, the visitors are hoping to retain their Premiership status for a fourth successive season.

After finishing fourth in the regular Championship season, Partick Thistle have since navigated their way to the Premiership playoff through two victories over Queen’s Park (8-3) and Ayr United (8-0).

Kris Doolan’s side are unbeaten in each of their last seven home matches, while they came out on top in their last meeting with Ross County, claiming a 3-2 extra-time victory over the Staggies in their quarter-finals of the League Cup in September 2019.

Twelve months on from securing a top-six finish in the Premiership, Ross County find themselves fighting to survive in the top flight after finishing the regular 2022-23 campaign in 11th place, subsequently enteringn the relegation playoffs.

Ross County failed to win any of their final three matches, including a 3-1 final-day defeat at Kilmarnock last weekend, but managed to avoid an immediate demotion to the second tier as basement side Dundee United lost 3-2 against Motherwell.

The Staggies have been branded as underdogs throughout this season in the Premiershp, but head coach Malky Mackay is pleased with his side taking that title again for their two-legged encounter with high-flying Partick.

Ross County have won each of their last two league trips to Firhill Stadium, including a 4-2 Championship victory in their most recent visit in February 2019.

In the 57 previous meetings between these two teams across all competitions, Partick have claimed 20 victories while Ross County have won 21, and they have drawn in 16. Ross County have scored 73 goals and conceded 77 in the process.
