FootyMAD's Greenock Morton match preview

History of the Greenock Morton v Alloa Athletic fixture

Alloa Ath. face a trip to Greenock Morton at Cappielow Park on Saturday evening, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having taken no points from 24 of the 34 contests.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2004, the The 'Ton carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a Scottish Division Two match.
