Kilmarnock vs Partick Thistle Predictions

• Kilmarnock have lost one of their last ten matches against Partick Thistle
• Four of the last five meetings between these two have gone under 2.5 match goals
• Kilmarnock secured promotion to the SPL last season

Kilmarnock have a good record in this fixture

Kilmarnock will be buoyed by last season’s Scottish Championship title winning campaign and will ply their trade in the division above Patrick Thistle this coming season. Kilmarnock have a good record in this fixture having tasted defeat once in their last ten matches against Wednesday’s opponents and with Derek McInnes having strengthened his side during the off season, the hosts are expected to take all the beating in this one.

Goals may be at a premium

These two teams met four times in the Scottish Championship last season with three of those meetings going under 2.5 match goals. Both Kilmarnock and Partick Thistle have only played one competitive match each this season and both sides still may be slightly undercooked preparation wise. SPL Kilmarnock are fancied to edge this one in what may be another low scoring affair between these two teams.

Kilmarnock to Win and Under 2.5 Match Goals will be the main selection for Wednesday’s clash in the Scottish League Cup. Kilmarnock will be buoyed by last season’s title winning campaign and have been able to attract better players during the off season with the East Ayrshire side now plying their trade in the SPL. The correct score prediction will be for this to end 1-0 to the home side.
