History of the Greenock Morton v Raith Rovers fixture

Raith Rovers travel to take on Greenock Morton at Cappielow Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Rovers will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.

The last time the two teams met at Morton was just over four years ago, in March 2001, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division One match.
