- Billy Davies has been Greenock Morton manager since November 25, 2025 and his side have won three, drawn one and lost one of their last five games in all competitions.
- The last five H2Hs have resulted in each side winning twice and drawing once.
- Both teams average 1.0 goals per game in their last five meetings when Morton has hosted, suggesting a close game.
Defensive discipline against dynamic pressing
Greenock Morton are 7th in the Championship 2025/2026 table with 18 points from 16 games, while Queen’s Park are 8th with 13 points from 15 matches. Billy Davies took over at Cappielow Park in November 2025 and his first few games in charge have been much more focused on structure and defensive solidity.
Morton have won only once in seven Championship home games this season (D4, L2), conceding nine goals in that period. The Greenock Morton vs Queen's Park prediction is that the Ton’s last two games, a narrow away defeat to Dunfermline in the Championship, followed by a dramatic 2-2 draw at Peterhead which Morton won in a penalty shootout in the FA Cup, show a team stabilizing at the back but lacking a cutting edge.
The home side usually set up a compact and rigid structure, with Eamonn Brophy’s runs providing them with their best outlet when the ball is won back. Brophy has not been in fine form, scoring just three times in 14 Championship games this term, but his ability to control the ball and play off his teammates makes him a consistent threat.
Spoils could be shared at Cappielow Park
Sean Crighton’s Queen’s Park side have played with a much more free-flowing and attack-minded style since he took over in May 2025. The Spiders have been more adventurous, pressing high up the field and trying to get numbers forward at every opportunity.
Crighton’s side have won just one of their eight Championship away games this year (D4, L3), conceding 17 goals in the process. Queen’s Park’s last game was a 0-0 draw at home to Ross County, while they beat Lowland League outfit Linlithgow Rose CFC 3-1 away from home in the FA Cup last time out.
This Greenock Morton vs Queen's Park preview highlights that the Spiders have been a mixed bag recently, with two wins, one draw and two defeats in their last five, but they have their talisman in Josh Fowler. Fowler has scored eight goals in 12 Championship appearances for Queen’s Park this season, a strong scoring record, and he has scored four times in his last five appearances.
A solid game of chess between two well-motivated sides
Billy Davies’ appointment is the subplot that makes this game interesting, as his disciplined block will look to frustrate Queen’s Park’s high-tempo pressing game and vice versa.
