Livingston vs Greenock Morton preview - Ross ready for Livi debut



I have a say

Posted Saturday, October 22, 2011 by PA

Livingston are set to hand former Scotland full-back Maurice Ross his debut.

The recent signing, who most recently represented Motherwell, has returned to full fitness after suffering from a groin strain.

Cammy MacDonald and Keaghan Jacobs are available again after injury and have been added to manager Gary Bollan's squad, but midfielder Liam Fox (ankle) will not feature.

Bollan believes Morton will adopt a more defensive formation for this game, but is sure that their manager Allan Moore will still be looking for three points.

The Lions boss said: "Morton are well known for the attacking threat that they possess and it is unlikely that we will not face that at some point in the game.

"This will be a tough game regardless of the formation they put out."

Morton centre-back Andy Graham is added to manager Allan Moore's squad after suspension as they bid to become the first side to win at Almondvale for 18 months.

Defender Stewart McCaffrey is a major doubt with a heel injury and Moore has already ruled out Michael Tidser with a knee injury and Sean Fitzharris with a hamstring problem.

After three defeats in their last four games, Morton have slipped to fourth place and Moore has told his players it is time to start heading back in the right direction.

He said: "We have to pick up our game and get going again. Our form recently, particularly away from home, has not been good enough. Livingston will be tough hosts but we can win."
