THE LOWDOWN
Hibernian reached the quarter-finals of the Sky Sports Cup by defeating Queen's Park 7-0 in the last 16 and Grant Scott's side, who are unbeaten in their last five, head to Glasgow in fine form following a big win up north.
A two-week hiatus due to the international break - which followed the girls' strong home performance versus Rangers - led into last weekend's ScottishPower Women's Premier League clash versus Aberdeen.
The first half proved tricky, with Emily Kraft putting the hosts in front on 15 minutes. Kirsten Reilly, striking from close-range, would level before half-time and set up a superb second half Hibs performance.
Eilidh Adams snatched a quick-fire brace before an own goal would put the game beyond doubt. Ensuring victory, Kathleen McGovern grabbed a six-minute hat-trick off the bench to secure a 7-1 victory and all three points.
Reilly's leveller was her first Hibs goal since returning to the Club in the summer, while Adams and McGovern's excellent five-goal haul brings their combined goal tally for the season up to an incredible 31 goals.
THE HOSTS
Partick Thistle finished as runners-up in last season's League Cup, losing 4-1 to Rangers in the final at Tynecastle Park.
Brian Graham's outfit currently sit sixth in the SWPL standings following Sunday's 3-0 away defeat to league leaders Glasgow City.
Our most recent meeting with the Jags came on the opening day of the 2024/25 league season at Lochburn Park.
The Hibees got off to a winning start, with powerful strikes from wingers Abbie Ferguson and Tegan Bowie forming the perfect start to the new campaign as Hibs ran out as 2-1 winners.
