2021-22 Challenge Cup, Round Two

Aidan Nesbitt played for Celtic reserves back in the days when they used Cappielow as their home ground. Though that's not Cappielow behind him. Source.

It's Round Two of the Challenge Cup, that magical moment when the Championship clubs join in. Today Morton play Celtic B. It's the first time Morton have faced a colt team in the Challenge Cup, or (correct me if I'm wrong) ever. The game is being played at Airdrieonians' Excelsior Stadium.

Five B teams have made it into this round: Rangers B, Celtic B, Aberdeen B, Hearts B, St Mirren B.

Morton have not won a Challenge Cup match since 2014, when they knocked Berwick Rangers out of the second round. The list of clubs that have beaten them since goes: Alloa (2014), Dumbarton (2015), Queen's Park (2016), Livingston (2017), Dumbarton again (2018) and Inverness Caledonian Thistle (2019). There was no Challenge Cup last year.

The winner of this match will face Montrose or Stirling Albion in Round Three.

Gus MacPherson made four signings at the deadline. One: striker Gavin Reilly on loan from Livingston. Reilly has also played for Queen of the South, Gretna 2008, Hearts, Dunfermline, St Mirren, Bristol Rovers, Cheltenham Town, and Carlisle United. Two: centre-back Oisin McEntee, on loan from Newcastle United. Three: midfielder Jakko Oksanen, on loan from Brentford. And four: forward Tom Allan, also from Newcastle United.

Goalkeeper Robby McCrorie, who made 15 league appearances for Morton in 2018-19, led Rangers to a 1 - 0 win over Celtic last weekend.

About Dykebar FC:

Dykebar were a Paisley club that was founded in 1879 and folded about 1895. They did not have a home ground, were staunchly amateur, and though they were a match for many of the clubs that joined the Scottish League (notably Morton and Port Glasgow), they never were elected to it. There's a brief history of them here. Do not confuse them with Dykehead FC from Shotts, Lanarkshire, which is another club entirely.

Morton visit Partick Thistle. Partick are third in the division with 6 points. Morton are fifth with 4 points.

The last time these two met was in the group stage of last year's League Cup. They played to a scoreless draw and then Partick took the extra point in the shootout. Partick earned two wins to one for Morton in the 2019-20 league season, but it did not save them from relegation.

Partick's Scott Tiffoney played for Morton from 2017 to 2019, as did Brian Graham way back in the years 2006 to 2011. Ross MacIver appeared for Morton last season. Robbie Muirhead played for Partick Thistle in 2015-16.
