In the Scottish Championship match between Partick Thistle FC and Ayr United FC on the 15th of April 2023, the teams came to a tie with a 1-1 scoreline. Analytically, this was quite a balanced match, with both teams displaying commendable performances, however, there were key statistical differences that impacted the match outcome.

Statistically speaking, Partick Thistle FC demonstrated a more aggressive stance in the game, as evidenced by 11 fouls compared to Ayr United's 8. It is noteworthy that this aggressive play didn't manifest in the form of yellow or red cards. In terms of offensives, they were also called offside two times, one less than Ayr United.

Despite more fouls from Partick Thistle FC, Ayr United FC seemed more challenged defensively. The home team managed 6 corner kicks against only 2 by the away team. This indicates that Partick was able to push the action into Ayr United territory more frequently, keeping the pressure on the Ayr's defense.

Interestingly enough, it seems like Partick Thistle FC may have had slightly better scoring opportunities, evidenced by their 4 shots on target against the 3 from Ayr United. They also had more shots that didn't quite find the mark, with 5 shots off target compared to Ayr United's 2. This indicates a higher attacking presence by Partick Thistle FC, even though it didn't translate into more goals.

However, there's a twist in the tale: Ayr United FC successfully capitalized on their opportunities by scoring in the second half, taking the first lead of the game 0-1. Partick Thistle FC, despite having one more shot on target and more corner kicks, could only manage to equalize the score.

Ayr United also made one more substitution than Partick Thistle FC, making 4 changes throughout the game which might suggest they were looking for fresh legs and possibly a tactical shift to keep up with the pressure from Partick Thistle FC.

Both goalkeepers had a crucial role, with the home team's goalkeeper making 2 saves and Ayr United’s making 3 saves - a factor that ultimately helped the away team walk away with a point.

In conclusion, while Partick Thistle FC exhibited more offensive dominance in terms of ball position in the opponent's half, shots on and off target, Ayr United FC's ability to turn their fewer chances into a goal, coupled with their goalkeeper's performance, balanced the scales and resulted in a 1-1 draw.
