Arbroath vs Greenock Morton – Match Preview
cinch Scottish Championship – Game 17 – Season 2022/2023
Saturday 3rd December 2022, Gayfield Park, Arbroath, 3.00pm kick off
Arbroath welcome Dougie Imrie’s Greenock Morton to Gayfield tomorrow for the Ton’s first visit of the season.
Greenock Morton sit second in the league just a point behind Ayr United after going on an incredible 8 game undefeated run in the Scottish Championship since Saturday 1st October with 6 wins and 2 draws and have the best defensive record in the Scottish Championship.
The highly experienced and skilful Efe Ambrose joined the Cappielow side at the end of October and has been a pivotal player in their charge up the table.
The Lichties will be looking to add to their victory last weekend in the Scottish Cup and will be hoping that the missing trio from last Saturday of Dale Hilson, Scott Stewart and Keaghan Jacobs will soon be back to help the squad.
Bobby Linn will be looking to add to his 7 goals so far this season as link up with Scott Allan continues to grow.
It will be another extremely tough match but we hope you can get right behind the team from the very start.
C’mon the Lichties!
