History of the Greenock Morton v Livingston fixture

Morton prepare to entertain Livingston at Cappielow Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The 'Ton are clearly on top, having won 10 and lost only 4 of the 19 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Cappielow Park was less than a year ago, in March 2008, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division One match.
