History of the Airdrie United v Greenock Morton fixture

Morton face a trip to Airdrie United at Shyberry Excelsior Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The The 'Ton will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in December 2008, the The Diamonds carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Scottish Division One match.
