Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Greenock Morton & Inverness CT face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Scottish Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Greenock Morton and Inverness CT.
Greenock Morton form and stats
Last season, Greenock's Scottish Cup journey ended in the 4th round.With 0 Championship wins, 5 draws and 3 defeats from their home games, Greenock Morton are certainly not brimming with confidence. Greenock are slowly digging their own grave here at Cappielow Park with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in eight attempts. The last victory here came in the Airdrieonians match.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Greenock Morton, who played 2-2 against Ayr United. That match was also played at this venue (Cappielow Park).
Prior to that, an away loss at Queen of the South in the Challenge Cup.Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Championship game versus Inverness CT in only four days. This game is also played here at Cappielow Park.
Greenock has scored 9 league goals at home this season, in 8 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 13 goals have been conceded.
Inverness CT form and stats
Inverness's mission in Scottish Cup last season failed in the 4th round.Playing away, Inverness CT have won 3 games, drawn 4 and suffered 1 defeat in the Championship this season.
Inverness CT are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the Championship against Kilmarnock.
Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Raith Rovers (after extra-time, 4-5 on penalties).There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Inverness manager W. Dodds as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Greenock Morton.
Inverness are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 8 away goals from 8 games (in the league). It's not easy to score on Inverness CT as they have only conceded 6 goals from these away games.
