Morton v Raith - Morton prepare to entertain high-flying Rovers
Posted Saturday, October 30, 2010 by PA
Morton welcome back striker Jonathan Toto for the visit of First Division leaders Raith.
The experienced Darren Young is also included in manager Allan Moore's plans as a trialist, with the midfield trio of Carlo Monti, Faoud Bauchirou and Graeme Holmes all expected to be missing again due to injury.
Moore said: "We played really well in our last game against Raith and were unlucky to go down to a late goal.
"They are a really good team and we know what to expect but we need to get in amongst them from the first whistle again.
"We need a win after blowing the chance of three points by missing two penalties against Cowdenbeath last week."
Raith have doubts over midfielder Stephen Simmonds.
Simmonds has a calf problem and is set to join long-term absentee Dougie Hill on the sidelines.
Despite Rovers` early success, Kirkcaldy manager John McGlynn is not getting overexcited by his side's lofty position.
He said: "We are going there as league leaders but it does not mean too much at this stage of the season. We will just keep doing what we are doing and see where that takes us."
Raith struck late to defeat Cowdenbeath and Ross County recently, and McGlynn added: "As long as we score one more than the opposition then that is fine by me."
