Arbroath presents decidedly better home form with 50% wins and just 10% losses at their own stadium, while Greenock Morton has won only 18% of away matches. The hosts have a positive goal difference of +5 in home matches, scoring an average of 1.6 goals with an xG of 1.46, whereas the visitors have recorded a negative balance of -4 on away trips with just 1.09 goals on average and an xG of 0.99. Form from the last five matches also speaks for Arbroath - 1.6 points per match compared to a catastrophic 0.2 points for Morton, who has lost four of the last five meetings, conceding as many as 14 goals. Higher scoring efficiency for the hosts (13% vs 15%), better average of shots on target (3.9 vs 2.36), and a more solid defense in home matches (1.1 vs 1.45 goals conceded) further confirm Arbroath's advantage.
