They have high ambitions

Partick Thistle shared the points with Aloa, after a quite close game. Both teams had their own half, the hosts were better in the first one and they opened the scoreline, while Partick Thistle found the equalizer in the second half, after 60 minutes played. Tonight they welcome the big favorites of the league, looking for their first three-pointer for the new season. Midfielder C.Wilson is unavailable for another one, however attacker Mitch Austin, who returned in the UK after a four-year spell in Australian teams, is ready to make his debut. 

Last season Dundee United failed to win the promotion finishing in the second place of the table, having 6 points less than the champions Ross County. Undoubtedly, they target again the first place in this season, in order to return in the Premiership after five years in the lower division. They showed their potential from their very first game, winning clearly 4-1 the other title contenders, Inverness CT. Forward L.Shankland was amazing, he scored all four goals of Dundee United. His name is in the list of certain European teams; however, the managementof the team, at least for now, refuse to assess any possible proposal for the 23yo striker. There are no injuries worries for the manager of Dundee United R.Neilson.

It is more than clear that Dundee United is the superior team here. They have high ambitions and the required quality to reach them. Partick Thistle is in a middle of an uncertain situation, as the sale of the team to the new owners was canceled, and the current management announced an even lower budget for new signings. I expect Dundee United to take all the points tonight, the away win is my call.
