Ross County v Partick Thistle : Championship match betting preview, prediction and odds

Fri 9th Jan, 19:45 BST, Victoria Park, Dingwall

Mark Wilson leads his Partick Thistle side to the Victoria Park in the Championship on Friday evening, with Tony Docherty's Ross County their challengers. We've analysed both teams' last 20 Championship matches, as well as baseline data within the competition and the market, to generate our percentage predictions. All the stats, including head to heads (H2H), are shown below, alongside odds.


Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there isn't an obvious winner for this clash, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that Ross County and Partick will score 2 or more goals between them. Goals have flowed freely when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Tony Docherty or Mark Wilson has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s recently either. The bookies are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.33 equating to roughly a 76% probability.
