Morton prepare to entertain Arbroath at Cappielow Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The 'Ton are clearly on top, having won 17 and lost only 5 of the 30 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Cappielow Park was earlier this season, the The 'Ton carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a Scottish Division Two match.
