Match Report

Showing only 3 changes (all in the forward line), it was a disappointing performance considering the previous week's heroics. McSpadyen gave Thistle the lead (7) but they fell out of the game. Motherwell (who lost their No 3 to injury before half-time) were the better team and scored 18 (pen) and 31.
