St Johnstone vs Morton

The Premiership club at home against a second tier St Johnstone, a Scottish top-flight side, host Morton, a Championship club, in the Premier Sports Cup. The pick goes with a home win. The read St Johnstone are the higher tier and start favourites at home, but Morton are a tidy, decent opponent able to hold their own. In July, too, the bigger clubs often rotate and the tie can become more balanced than expected: I read it around 62%. The confidence of 6 looks well judged for a likely but not certain win. A preview with St Johnstone favoured.
