History of the Greenock Morton v Dundee fixture

Dundee face a trip to Greenock Morton at Cappielow Park on Saturday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 73 games played, The Dee have recorded 20 wins, and Morton have come away with 32 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2008, with Dundee inflicting a narrow 1 - 2 defeat upon the The 'Ton in a Scottish Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Greenock Morton have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. The The 'Ton's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 7.

Dundee's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the The Dee have hit 4 goals, 8 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Morton find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 10 games have yielded only 7 points. Dundee are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 12 points from 10 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Not a lot has been going right generally for Dundee on their travels as of late, but I can certainly see them gleaning a point from their game against Morton. No-score draw

Sequence statistics:
Morton Not drawn a match in their last 3 .
Dundee Not won in previous 4 away matches.
No win in the 7 most recent games.
