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. The The Doonhamers's have scored 10 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 12.

Partick Th.'s away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the The Jags have hit 7 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Queen o.t.S. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 23 points from 21 matches. Partick Th. are just outside the promotion places, in 3rd, having taken 31 points from 21 games.

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
