Greenock Morton face a tough away test at Livingston next Saturday as they look to extend a strong run of Championship form. The match at The Home of the Set Fare Arena kicks off at 3pm on 14 November.
Morton have won four of their last five league games, a sequence that includes a dramatic 4-3 victory over Stenhousemuir last Saturday. That result lifted them to ninth in the table with 10 points from 12 games, but they remain 15 points adrift of leaders Raith Rovers. The team's recent form shows four wins and one loss in their last five outings. Their overall record this season stands at three wins, one draw and eight losses from their 12 matches, having scored 12 goals and conceded 20.
Livingston present a significant challenge, sitting fifth in the Championship. Their recent form has been mixed, with one win, one draw and one defeat from their last three league fixtures. The last meeting between the sides in September ended in a heavy 4-1 defeat for Morton at home.
Borso was the hero in the weekend's win, scoring all four Morton goals against Stenhousemuir. His second and fourth goals were assisted by Sandilands. That attacking output will be vital against a Livingston defence that kept a clean sheet in a 1-0 win over Arbroath last month. Borso's four-goal haul in the 4-3 win on Saturday 7 November, which included strikes in the 7th, 17th, 51st and 76th minutes, highlights his importance as the team's top scorer.
Morton's fixtures schedule now sees them head to West Lothian for this key clash. The full squad will be needed as the team seeks to close the five-point gap to their opponents in the standings. The match is the next fixture for both clubs. Following this game, Morton will look to build on their recent results, which also include a 3-2 win at Partick on 31 October and a 2-0 home victory over Queen's Park on Saturday 17 October, though they suffered a 1-0 defeat to Kelty Hearts on Tuesday 3 November.
