Morton visit Dunfermline. Morton are sixth with 31 points, Dunfermline ninth with 24. Morton have lost two in a row. Their longest losing streak this year was three games, back around Halloween.
Michael Tidser has been Dunfermline manager since January 17th. He starred at midfield for Morton from 2010 to 2013 and 2015 to 2019, and was player/coach at Kelty Hearts from 2023 till this year. He has faced Morton twice as Kelty manager, losing both times. The Dunfermline fans are already against him.
The one thing Morton have to do for the rest of this season is stay ahead of the Pars. If you take 42 points as the safety threshold, Morton have 11 games left to earn 11 points, while Dunfermline have 10 games to earn 18.
But Morton have not been a scoring machine this season. (See below.)
