Dumbarton are looking to bounce back from their 5-0 thumping by Falkirk when Morton come to the Cheaper Insurance Direct Stadium today. However, they will need to do so while coping with a mounting injury list. Frazer Wright (knee), Scott Taggart (knee), Kevin Cawley and Steven Craig (both ankle) will all be missing but on-loan Celtic midfielder Jamie Lindsay returns after two months out with a groin injury. Manager Stephen Aitken said: "Last Saturday was just one of those games where nothing went right. We gave away bad goals and you cannot do that and expect to win games. We are determined to put in a much better performance against a Morton side who have improved throughout the season."
Morton, who lost 3-1 to St Johnstone in the League Cup on Tuesday, will give the attacking threat of Bobby Barr and Alex Samuel until close to kick-off time to prove their fitness. However, Ricki Lamie (hamstring), Frank McKeown and Peter MacDonald (both knee) and Romario Sabajo (ankle) are ruled out. Manager Jim Duffy said: "We can take heart from our performance against St Johnstone in midweek in the League Cup despite losing. We played well against a good side so we can move on quickly and look forward to going for league points. This is our third meeting of the season so there will be no surprises. The team that turns up most for the game will win it."
