Morton vs Falkirk preview - Tidser back after ban
Posted Tuesday, March 01, 2011 by PA
Midfielder Michael Tidser returns after a ban for Morton's clash with promotion-chasing Falkirk.
However, Darren Young remains a doubt with a calf injury along with striker Derek Lyle, who has a hamstring problem.
Manager Allan Moore's men battled back to grab a draw against Dundee at the weekend, and Moore said: "Dundee was a tough test and we started slowly but came back a lot better in the second half.
"We deserved a draw and will be encouraged by that, however Falkirk will be another tough game.
"They will view this match as an opportunity to close the gap on Raith Rovers and Dunfermline. But we have ambitions of our own at Morton and I will be sending my side out to win."
Falkirk midfielder Mark Millar sits out the trip as he serves the second game of his suspension.
The Bairns are looking to close the gap on the leading pair of Raith and Dunfermline, but boss Steven Pressley is playing things cool.
He said: "There is still a long way to go in this league but obviously a win would send out a real statement of our intentions.
"Both games at our place against Morton have been tight and I don`t see this one being any different.
"We gave a strong performance against Cowdenbeath at the weekend and it would be good to add a bit of flair to this one."
