Competition: <\/strong>Scottish Championship<\/p>\n Market: <\/strong>Patrick Thistle win<\/p>\n Odds:<\/strong> 4\/5 @ Pribet<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Two camps who find themselves scrapping it out at opposite ends of the Championship standings, Partick Thistle will welcome Ross County to the Firhill Stadium on Friday night.<\/p>\n Starting with the hosts, last seen putting in another gritty performance as they secured a 2-0 victory away at Raith, Partick Thistle are pencilled in as a standout promotion contender in 2026. Opening Friday\u2019s showdown sat in silver medal position, Mark Wilson\u2019s men will be looking to make another statement here. Despite watching their Scottish Cup adventure come to an end earlier in the month as they slumped to a 2-1 loss at the hands of St. Mirren, it appears that result was just a minor blip for the Jags. In fact, the one-time Celtic defender has seen his squad get hit with just a single defeat from any of their previous 12 appearances across all competitions \u2013 a run that stems back to January 9th. Smelling another opportunity this weekend, Friday\u2019s hosts should also be excited by their continued success on home soil. The Championship promotion contenders have not suffered a single defeat in front of their own supporters within 90 minutes since the end of September.<\/p>\n As for the visitors, opening Friday\u2019s showdown sat five points adrift in the relegation play-off place, Ross County have rightfully come under a huge amount of scrutiny this season. Facing the real prospect of suffering consecutive relegations, Stuart Kettlewell\u2019s side look set for what is another stern examination here. Eventually forced to settle for a 2-2 stalemate at home against Dunfermline last time out, the Staggies have claimed just a single win from any of their previous seven Championship appearances. Including a 3-0 drumming against Dunfermline earlier in the month, Friday\u2019s guests have also gained a reputation for their struggles on the road. Including a 1-0 loss against St. Johnstone in their last showdown away from Victoria Park, Ross County have also lost their previous two trips to Partick Thistle. Two camps who find themselves scrapping it out at opposite ends of the Championship standings, we are backing a home victory this weekend.<\/p>\n Bet: Partick Thistle 4\/5 to beat Ross County in Friday\u2019s Scottish Championship contest <\/strong>@<\/strong> Pribet<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.soccernews.com\/wp-content\/themes\/SN\/images\/300x250_HR.gif\")
