Morton are currently 10th in the Championship, with 0 points, 0 wins, 2 losses from 2 games, and a recent form of LL. They are 6 points behind the leaders Partick. Their next fixture is against Stenhousemuir on 2027-01-09.
Grant Savoury, Morton's new signing, believes that a win over Arbroath can be the turning point for the team's season. The team has had a difficult start, with a miserable Premier Sports Cup campaign and back-to-back defeats in the Championship.
Savoury, who is yet to feature since joining Morton in the summer, is determined to make his return count. He believes that three points could provide the spark his new side desperately need.
"I think it's important as a team that we believe that can be the case," Savoury told the Tele. "You see in this league every season that there are very small margins between getting a result and losing, so I think the boys have to believe that we can turn it around and that we will turn it around.
"When you look at teams like Arbroath and other teams that maybe start off poorly and have ended up finishing fairly high in the table, I think you should take confidence from that. But for us to be the same, it's important to remember it's only week two of the season."
Alongside Savoury, Jayden Gorman, Cammy Ballantyne, Jackson Longridge, and Kerr Robertson could all return to the reckoning for Murray's side. The Morton boss has been open about the selection problems he has faced, but the injury situation finally appears to be easing.
For Savoury, that provides an opportunity to help his new club put a difficult opening few weeks behind them. "Realistically, the team's only going to get stronger and we're only going to be more competitive," Savoury added. "I think, obviously, it has been a hard few weeks, including the cup - not all the players have been able to play all the fixtures, which is far from ideal. At the same time, like I said, I think it will only get better from here."
Morton have scored 0 goals this season and conceded 3, with a goal difference of -3. They have a tough task ahead of them, but Savoury is confident that the team can turn their season around.
