Heart of Midlothian vs Partick Thistle match preview

Following a famous European victory on Thursday night, can Heart of Midlothian go again and avoid falling at the first hurdle of the League Cup?

Three nights ago, Hearts welcomed Rosenborg to Gorgie, seeking to overturn a one-goal deficit, having been beaten 2-1 in Trondheim a week earlier.

Safe to say, the Jambos made the worst possible start, conceding from a free kick after only six minutes.

They weren’t behind for long though, just seven minutes in fact, with Stephen Kingsley’s long-ball forwards picking out Lawrence Shankland and he finished cooly.

Then, Cammy Devlin would turn out to be the unlikely hero, firing home on the rebound soon after half time before, in stoppage time, his shot deflected in, sparking wild celebrations from those donning maroon.

This is just the seventh time Hearts have won a two-legged European tie this century, and their reward is a Europa Conference League play-off round tie against PAOK, with the first leg to come on Thursday.

Now, can Steven Naismith and Frankie McAvoy’s team refocus and make sure they’re not dumped out of the League Cup here?

Partick Thistle meantime had to come through the group stages just to get this far, enjoying wins over Peterhead on penalties, Dundee United and the Spartans, also losing a shootout to Falkirk.

Since then though, Kris Doolan’s team have failed to win either of their first two Championship matches this season, held to a 2-2 draw by Raith before a 2-1 defeat at Airdrieonians last Saturday.

So, can the Jags cause a League Cup upset at Tynecastle?
