Recent respective form guides

Greenock Morton's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The 'Ton have scored 5, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.

Dundee's away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the The Dee, and 5 goals against.

Morton are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 31 points from 32 matches. Dundee are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 62 points from 32 games.
