- Greenock Morton have the fewest scored goals in the first half (7) in Championship
- Hearts have the most scored goals (56) in Championship
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Scottish Cup. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Motherwell.
Greenock Morton form and stats
When playing at home in the Championship, Greenock Morton have managed 4 wins, 3 draws and suffered 5 defeats from 12 games.
A 1-1 draw away in the Championship before that, with Dundee the opponent.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Alloa Athletic are coming to town in four days.
The Greenock fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 12 matches. 17 goals have been conceded.
Hearts form and stats

The Hearts goalkeeper Craig Gordon is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 188 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
Hearts go into this game after a win, the home game against Alloa Athletic that ended 6-0. Preceding that game, the 0-0 draw paying a visit to Dunfermline Athletic.
As you can tell from the results above, Hearts was very dominant against Alloa Athletic, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 6-0 (!) with E. Henderson, L. Boyce (3), A. McEneff and J. Walker providing the goals. L. Boyce certainly enjoyed Hearts's last game versus Alloa Athletic, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 6-0 victory.
A new game in only four days for Hearts, the Championship home match versus Inverness CT. Busy days.
