GLASGOW, Scotland (Interstat) — Partick Thistle opened its Scottish Championship season with a 3-1 victory over Ross County at Firhill Stadium on Friday, March 27, 2026, overcoming an early deficit. Ross County substitute Jamie Lindsay stunned the home crowd with a goal in just the second minute. Partick Thistle responded forcefully, with Alex Samuel equalizing in the 19th minute before Robbie Crawford gave the hosts the lead six minutes later. Defender Ben McPherson sealed the win with a goal just before halftime. The result defied a pregame projection from Interstat, whose simulator had favored Ross County despite giving Partick Thistle a high probability to win. Ross County’s Declan Gallagher received a yellow card in the 74th minute. Both clubs now hold 0-0 records to start the league campaign.
