Partick Thistle form and stats

It's a day of discovery for Partick Thistle as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Partick Thistle have played two with the results W0-D1-L1 (win-draw-lost). In these games Partick has scored 2 goals and conceded 4 times.

The last season was not a pleasant experience for Partick Thistle as they could not accumulate enough points to survive. After only 6 victories from 27 games, relegation was a fact. Partick's manager I. McCall are hoping to lead the team right back to Championship at the first attempt.
