History of the Greenock Morton v Clyde fixture

Clyde travel to take on Greenock Morton at Cappielow Park on Saturday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 61 games played, Bully Wee have recorded 22 wins, and Morton have come away with 24 victories.

The last time the two teams met at Morton was back in August 2001, over five years ago, as the visitors ran out cosy 1 - 3 winners in a Scottish Challenge Cup match.
