BOTTOM of the First Division Morton go into their Co-operative Insurance Cup tie against Inverness Caledonian Thistle hoping it is their cup form they bring with them and not their league form.
The Greenock men have not lost a cup tie this season and have scored 15 goals in four ties, including six at Stranraer in the first round of this competition and four in the last round to see off SPL Hibs 4-3 in extra time.
In the league, however, only three points have been gathered from seven games and manager David Irons was left frustrated after Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Partick Thistle and has promised the Cappielow faithful better. He said: "We have been letting the fans down and a home cup tie against SPL opposition gives us a chance to get them back on board with a good performance."
Defenders Stewart Greacen and David MacGregor remain out injured. Defender Allan McManus who was a substitute on Saturday is expected to start.
Inverness will be without banned striker Andy Barrowman.
