Jim McIntyre is expecting another really tough contest when Morton come to East EndPark:-
"It will be a very hard game, they gave us a very tough game at Cappielow and we did really well to get a point out of it.
"They are a big strong, physical team who like to get the ball back to front. They have several boys 6ft and above, so it is all about combating that and trying to play our own game.Get the ball down and pass it.Morton have done very well recently, they are on a very good run.
"They are a really decent side and I thought that after they beat us three nil at Cappielow at the tail end of last season that they would mount a challenge this year. I was really surprised at their start, but they are starting to come with a run now.
"We are at home and it is up to us now to get our home form right. Obviously we have lost our last two home games and that is not good enough."
Steven Bell and Graeme Holmes will be in the squad this week, they have coming on well in training and in the reserve matches against Cowdenbeath and RossCounty. The gaffer is hopeful that they troubles are behind can kept fit.Scott Muirhead and Greg Shields are doubtful for tomorrow's game.
Simon Wiles is expected to be out for five months since picking up a cruciate knee injury in the league match at Airdrie
"It's a big disappointment for Simon, firstly for him and obviously for the team.He has been a valuable member, he's been stop start since he came here.
"He has got talent, he's set up three goals and scored one when he has played. He's contributed and we are just hoping that it is not as bad as what we fear."
