Scottish Cup Form
Saints reached the quarter-final stage after victories away to Livingston and Airdrieonians in the fourth and fifth rounds respectively. It's the first time the Buddies have reached this stage since facing Hearts at Tynecastle in the last eight in 2022.
It took penalty kicks for Saints to overcome Livingston at The Home of the Set Fare Arena in the fourth round. Roland Idowu's early goal was cancelled about by a Scott Arfield equaliser with the game going to the distance after neither side could be separated after 120 minutes. The Buddies prevailed 4-3 on penalties to set up a fifth round tie away to Championship side Airdrieonians. Jacob Devaney gave us the lead at the Albert Barlett Stadium before we were pegged back by the Diamonds in the second-half. Extra-time was required with Idowu scoring with only five minutes remaining to send us into the quarters.
Partick Thistle's Scottish Cup journey began at the third round stage in November. The Jags defeated Forfar Athletic 2-0 at Station Park thanks to goals from Ben Stanway and Alex Samuel. The fourth round saw Thistle square off against Montrose at Firhill with a Tony Watt double and an injury-time Ricco Diack strike seeing Mark Wilson's side win 3-1. Thistle - who sit second in the William Hill Championship - reached the quarter-finals following a 3-2 win away to Elgin City in the fifth round. Robbie Crawford, Watt and Stanway scored the goals as the Jags edged out the League Two outfit at Borough Briggs last month.
