History of the Queen of the South v Partick Thistle fixture

Queen o.t.S. prepare to entertain Partick Thistle at Palmerston Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 19 of the 44 previous games, with the The Doonhamers winning just 14.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Palmerston Park was just last season, in April 2005, with Queen o.t.S. running out comfortable 3-1 winners in a Scottish Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Queen of the South's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While The Doonhamers have scored 4, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Partick Th.'s away form is none too clever either, with 3 victories and just 1 loss from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the The Jags, and 19 goals against.

Queen o.t.S. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 8 games have yielded only 2 points. Partick Th.'s 14 points from 8 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 4th position.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Nothing seems to be going right for the The Doonhamers at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the The Jags come away with an easy victory. Away win
