Raith Rovers pack their bags to visit Greenock Morton at Cappielow Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground.

The previous match played between the two at Cappielow Park was within the last three years, in December 2006, the The 'Ton carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Scottish Division Two match.
