Raith Rovers
- Raith Rovers have won their last two games in a row.
- The sides are tied on 36 points in the Championship going into the weekend but Raith are fifth with a game in hand on eighth-placed Morton.
- It is a system that can also create good transitions and coordinated pressing, which Raith have employed with excellent effect at home recently, winning three of their last four.
Greenock Morton
- Greenock Morton have won two and lost three of their last five.
- Morton have won one and lost one of their last two away games and have only won three of 16 away matches in the Championship 2025-2026.
Head-to-Head
- The last two meetings have ended tied, including the reverse fixture seven weeks ago which ended 0-0 at Morton's ground.
- This clash also has the feel of a cup game because the two clubs swapped managers recently, with Dougie Imrie taking charge at Raith in November 2025 and Ian Murray now in charge at Morton.
- The Ton’s system under Murray will be almost the antithesis of Imrie’s approach as the Greenock manager will set his team up to be compact and disciplined, soaking up pressure and looking to counter-attack.
Key Players
- Innes Cameron has been in exceptional goal-scoring form for Raith Rovers with five of the club’s last ten goals, but Dylan Easton remains their most reliable attacker with eight goals in the league.
- Eamonn Brophy has been Morton’s dangerman with six in 21 Championship appearances, but there isn’t the same level of service to him at the moment.
Betting Insights
- A bet on the home team at 1.88 looks like a good play for this game, which is likely to feature goals at both ends and plenty of goalmouth action.
- Raith Rovers are averaging 1.75 goals per home match in the Championship 2025/2026 while Morton are conceding at a rate of 1.62 per away game.
- I will take the home side’s attacking edge and excellent recent form into account when recommending the Over 2.5 goals and Both Teams to Score bets, which are available at 2.15 and 1.91 respectively.
Prediction
A home win is still my main bet, however, as Raith Rovers are the team with the momentum and form to win this game.
