โน๏ธ Team News: Greenock Morton
Thereโs just one fitness concern for the Greenock Morton manager Dougie Imrie to contend with thanks to an almost full-strength group of players. Jack Harkness (Hamstring injury) misses out.
In all likelihood, The Ton will possibly opt for a 4-4-1-1 formation in the match, utilising Jordan Pickford, Ben Godfrey, James Tarkowski, Jarrad Branthwaite, Vitalii Mykolenko, Ashley Young, James Garner, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Dwight McNeil, Jack Harrison and D. Calvert-Lewin.
๐ Team News: Inverness C.T.
With a completely healthy squad to pick from, the Inverness C.T. boss Duncan Ferguson has no fitness worries to speak of coming into this game.
We reckon that Caley Thistle seem most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 lineup, choosing Alphonse Areola, Vladimir Coufal, K. Mavropanos, Kurt Zouma, Emerson, Edson Alvarez, Tomas Soucek, Mohammed Kudus, James Ward-Prowse, Lucas Paqueta and Jarrod Bowen.
๐ง Prediction
Weโre thinking that Inverness C.T. will really need to work well to breach the defence of this Greenock Morton lineup who we think might well be able to grind out a win.
Weโre therefore seeing a highly competitive game with a 1-0 victory for Greenock Morton when the full-time whistle blows.
Letโs see how it plays out.
