Greenock Morton, Recent FormGreenock Morton had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 0-0 draw against Inverness CT.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 6 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 4 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have had a recent run of 3 clean sheets, and playing at home, they have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 5 games.
Ayr United, Recent FormAyr United will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Dunfermline Athletic, which ran out a 2-2 draw.
Supremo Lee Bullen will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 12 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 10 goals they've managed to net. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They've had a less than ideal run of form recently, winning just 1 of their last 6 games.
With 5 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Logan Chalmers has given the travelling Ayr United support something to shout about on the road.
It was one to forget for Ayr United last time they met Greenock Morton in the league, falling to a 0-1 defeat.
Goals should be on the cards for Morton in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against The Honest Men in their last 9 meetings together. The Ton have struggled to keep Ayr Utd at bay when these two teams have met at Cappielow Park, during the last 3 times they have hosted Ayr Utd in the league, they have conceded a total of 6 goals.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams, Morton has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Ayr Utd in 3 games.
Robbie Crawford has scored in each of Morton's last 2 home games against Ayr Utd.
Greenock Morton 1 - 1 Ayr UnitedWith no real injury worries, Morton manager Dougie Imrie will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Ayr Utd manager Lee Bullen has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
