Greenock Morton take on the visitors Partick Thistle in the round 15 match of Scottish Championship. The match will be played on Tuesday, December 31st at Cappielow Park (Greenock).
Greenock Morton won the Scottish Cup, but that was back in 1912. There were some finals, but there were no more serious trophies. Moreover, after 1988 they failed to rise to the elite division of the country. At the beginning of this century, they even played in the local fourth football league. But they managed to improve, and since 2015 the club has been a permanent participant in the Championship. Last season they managed to take 5th place. But they have not been able to repeat that result even close. In late October - early November, there was even a 3rd defeat in a row. After that, they managed to gain points steadily - mainly through draws, but they beat Raith Rovers. They even scored 2-0 with Dunfermline, but they managed to get by with Ayr United without any goals at all.

Partick Thistle still hope to fight for promotion. The Jags have victories in both cup formats. The team also spent a lot of time in the Premiership and played in the European arena. There were chances to return there following the results of last season, when they took 3rd place in the regular championship. But the play-offs ended with the opponent being stronger, or rather luckier, in the confrontation with Raith Rovers on penalties. Now Chris Doolan's charges are trying to repeat at least that result. But there are also many misfires, including in the last rounds of 2024 - they flew out of the cup, losing on penalties to Queen's Park, and on the field of Livingston they interrupted a long unbeaten streak, losing 0-2. But then they started a new one, with 2-0 on the field of Airdrieonians. Having played with the cup offenders again, but already in the championship, they took revenge at home in the last round, albeit only 2-1.
“The Jags” have not lost in 7 head-to-head matches — 4 wins and 3 draws. The visitors are leading the division and have a good handicap. We bet that they will be able to win away from home.
Prediction for the match: Partick Thistle to win.
