Morton prepare to entertain Forfar Athletic at Cappielow Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The 'Ton are clearly on top, having won 20 and lost only 7 of the 37 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Cappielow Park was less than a year ago, in February 2005, as they swept to an impressive 4-0 win in a Scottish Division Two match.
