History of the Greenock Morton v Stirling Albion fixture

Morton prepare to entertain Stirling Albion at Cappielow Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The 'Ton are clearly on top, having won 18 and lost only 4 of the 34 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Cappielow Park was earlier this season, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Greenock Morton's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While The 'Ton have scored 5, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Stirling Alb.'s away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Binos have hit 6 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Morton are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 24 points from 26 matches. Stirling Alb. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 26 games have yielded only 19 points.
