Greenock Morton vs Forfar Athletic preview - McKee doubt for Morton

Posted Friday, March 06, 2015 by PA

New league leaders Morton host Forfar with manager Jim Duffy's only injury concern being Joe McKee.

The midfielder picked up a knock in Tuesday night's 4-0 success over Stirling Albion which sent the Greenock men to the summit.

Duffy said: "Stirling were better than us for most of the first half and deserved to be winning. I am delighted that we got the three points but there are things we can improve on.

"Forfar have a lot of players who have played a lot of games and that experience makes them very difficult opponents. "

Forfar manager Dick Campbell has delayed choosing his side for the Cappielow encounter as Iain Campbell, James Dale, Dale Hilson and Gavin Swankie are all facing fitness tests.

Campbell said: "It is not ideal preparation, however we will get on with things and look to put on a big performance against Morton. This is a big game for us and getting a win as well as keeping Dunfermline eight points behind in the play-off race would be a terrific afternoon's work.

"I watched Morton in midweek and while they won handsomely I saw a couple of things we will look to exploit."
