Dundee struck early to brush aside Partick Thistle and clinch a comfortable win at Dens Park.
Gavin Swankie's glorious 25-yard free-kick started things off in the eighth minute. And once Robert Davidson had nodded in a simple second from a Paul Dixon cross, the result was never in doubt. Kevin McDonald capped a splendid performance with a neat finish and Thistle's misery was complete when Alan Archibald picked up a second booking. A great performance from Dundee, and this season they are looking a good outside bet for the league title.
