Hamilton Accies v Morton: How to watch Championship clash, and who is the ref

Hamilton Accies will be up against a familiar foe in the dug-out on Saturday when Dougie Imrie brings his high-flying Greenock Morton side to New Douglas Park for a Championship clash.

Imrie's side are undefeated in six league games since he took over on December 21, with four wins and two draws. Their only defeat came in a Scottish Cup fourth-round tie at Motherwell, and that was after extra-time.

As a result, the Cappielow side are above Accies on goal difference in the Championship table, and with a game in hand, so that should serve up a cracker of a clash.

Accies go into the game on the back of their 2-2 draw at leaders Arbroath on Wednesday, February 9, while Morton grabbed a vital 2-1 home win against Queen of the South last Saturday.

The sides have met twice previously this season, with Accies drawing 1-1 at Cappielow on October 30, having lost 1-0 at New Douglas Park on August 7.

With capacity crowds allowed back to stadiums it's easy enough to buy a ticket for the game, but if you can't make it, the game will be streamed live on Accies TV, and a pass can be bought here for £10.

Man in the middle

Referee for Saturday's game is Andrew Dallas, who will be assisted by Colin McAlpine and George King.

Dallas has been involved in six games this season, issuing 19 yellow cards and one red.

He last officiated a game involving Hamilton when they lost 2-0 to Ayr United at New Douglas Park on Saturday, September 19.

Dallas has also been in charge of a game involving Saturday's opponents Morton when they drew 0-0 at Queen of the South on October 23.
