The sun is shining but it is so very deceiving.

Freezing here.

Chris Kane forces a good save from the Thistle ‘keeper immediately after those corners.

Pars coming into it.

Two unreal deliveries from Matty Todd, right on top of Josh Clarke from the Pats corner.

Ben McPherson has a shot but it’s well blocked.

Decent start for Partick Thistle, this.

After a switch of ends, we’re underway at East End Park.

Teams are oot, let’s get into this.

Partick Thistle manager Mark Wilson says there'll be "no nostalgia" when he faces his old captain and manager, Neil Lennon.

Wilson admits he had "some of the best years of my life" with Lennon as his skipper at Celtic before the Northern Irish international then coached the right-back at Parkhead when he took over from Tony Mowbray.

"I had some of the best years of my life there when Neil was captain. A really strong individual who demands the highest standards.

"I saw him make that progression, saw the pressure landed on his shoulders as a rookie manager taking one of the biggest teams in the world and how he dealt with that."

The effect Lennon's leadership had on Wilson as a Celtic player isn't lost on the Thistle boss either, although he's keen to stress the pair are now equals in opposing technical areas.

"He's done an incredible job with Dunfermline. Getting to a Scottish Cup final with a Championship club is no mean feat. That takes some doing.

"He's a tough opponent to come up against but these two games are not about nostalgia, about me being one of Neil's ex-players or anything like that. My job now is a coach, I'm his equal, I need to find a way to beat him and that's what my full concentration is on."

Aston Oxborough saved the late penalty he conceded as Dunfermline Athletic held on for a 0-0 draw away to Arbroath on Friday.

The Pars progressed 1-0 on aggregate after Chris Kane scored the only goal here one week ago today.
