Morton vs Motherwell Prediction & Betting Tips (9 February)

Prior to last match in the Scottish Cup, Morton had been enjoying some spectacular results on home soil, winning 14 of their last 19 matches in all competitions. As for Motherwell, their recent results have been pretty mixed, with three wins, four draws and three losses from their previous ten games.

Keeping things tight at the back has been Morton modus operandi of late, with just four goals conceded across their most recent 21 top-flight home fixtures, 14 of the last 17 of which have produced under 3.5 goals. Given that 17 of the previous 21 Motherwell away matches at this level have followed suit, this contest should deliver three goals or fewer.

When Motherwell come calling in the Scottish Cup, excitement tends to be in short supply, with at least one of the two teams pitching a shutout in 14 of their previous 19 away games. It has been a similar story as far as Morton are concerned on their own patch of late, with both teams on target in just two of their last nine matches at this level, so something similar seems likely.
