Partick Thistle visit Morton.* Partick are fourth in the division with 23 points, Morton eighth with 14. These two played to a scoreless draw on the first day of the season. Robbie Muirhead was the last Morton man to score against Partick.
Partick Thistle supporters insist that the club be referred to as Thistle and not Partick. The club has not been located in the Glasgow neighbourhood of Partick for 116 years. But no one listens because of the many many other Scottish clubs named Thistle, to wit, Inverness Caledonian Thistle, Buckie Thistle, Strathspey Thistle, Lochar Thistle, Largs Thistle, Bonnyton Thistle, Larkhall Thistle, Ardeer Thistle, Dalry Thistle, Lugar Boswell Thistle, East Kilbride Thistle, Armadale Thistle, Bathgate Thistle, Dalkeith Thistle, Bunillidh Thistle, Kirriemuir Thistle, Scone Thistle, Bridge of Don Thistle, Burghead Thistle and Forres Thistle, to name but a few.
Dumbarton FC have entered administration. They're the second SPFL club to do so in 2024-25, and also the second in League One, after Inverness Caledonian Thistle. Add Bonnyrigg Rose with their substandard playing pitch and three SPFL clubs have received points deductions so far this season.

The final round of the 2024 Japanese Regional Football Champions League takes place this weekend. Due to the closure of Sony Sendai the rules for promotion are different this year. The winner of the final round earns automatic promotion to the JFL. A playoff game will take place between the bottom JFL team and the JRFCL runner-up. If the winner and/or runner-up is not qualified to join the JFL, then the third and/or fourth JRFCL finisher steps up.
