St Mirren head into this play-off clash with the advantage of home turf after a 1-1 result in the opening leg. While Partick Thistle competed well, the overall quality difference between the sides could prove decisive here.
The hosts have far more experience playing at a higher level and should be able to control larger spells of the game. In high-pressure fixtures like this, that extra composure and quality in the final third often makes the difference.
Partick are capable of causing problems on the counter, but St Mirren’s home record and Premiership pedigree make them the stronger side coming into this tie. With the crowd behind them and promotion/survival on the line, expect the hosts to rise to the occasion and get the result needed over 90 minutes
