The numbers tell their own story, and Greenock Morton have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 11 goals in total. Defensively, Greenock Morton just haven’t been too solid at all. Nevertheless, we’ll just have to find out if that trend will be maintained here in this match or not.
A review of their past head to head meetings stretching back to 18/01/2020 tells us that these fixtures have not been fruitful for Greenock Morton. They’ve not been able to register any wins whatsoever while St Johnstone have just been stronger than them, finishing as winners in 83 per cent of those matches.
A combined sum of 18 goals were shared by the two clubs throughout the course of those matches, with 17 of them for The Saints and 1 netted by The Ton. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 3.
The last league fixture featuring these clubs was Championship match day 28 on 07/03/2026 when the final score was Greenock Morton 0-2 St Johnstone.
The referee was Duncan Nicolson.
Thanks to a largely full-strength squad, there’s only the one fitness problem for the Greenock Morton boss Ian Murray to be concerned about. 1 (Morton) won’t be in action.
In this game, Greenock Morton could really find it hard to find the net against a St Johnstone side who should be able to set up a big win.
We’re tipping a very comfortable 3-0 margin for St Johnstone at full-time.
