Morton prepare to entertain Dumbarton at Cappielow Park on Saturday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The The 'Ton are clearly on top, having won 34 and lost only 8 of the 54 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Cappielow Park was less than a year ago, in March 2004, as the The 'Ton squeezed past their rivals by a scoreline of 3-2 in a Scottish Division Two match.
