History of the Brechin City v Greenock Morton fixture

Brechin City play host to Greenock Morton at Glebe Park on Saturday evening, looking to improve on a dire past record against their opponents. It does not make pleasant reading, winning 25.93 of the games played between the two.

The last time the two teams met at Brechin City was back in March 1995, over five years ago, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division Two match.
