Recent respective form guides

Dumbarton have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. The Sons's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 7.

Morton's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 13 goals for the The 'Ton, and 5 goals against.

Dumbarton are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 27 points from 23 matches. Morton are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 37 points from 23 games.
