| Griffiths got the only goal as the Dark Blues picked up maximum points on he road for the first time this season back in October.
And, on the opening day of the league season, a solitary Sean Higgins strike earned all three points in a tight affair at Dens Park.
As the narrow margins in those games suggest, despite the Greenock men struggling near the foot of the table, they have not been easy opponents.
Griffiths does not expect that to change tomorrow.
“You are talking about a side where almost everyone of them is over six foot and they are physical, so it is always a hard game against them,” he said.
“It also makes them dangerous at set-pieces and the manager will make sure we all know who we are picking up.”
Having opened up a five-point gap at the top of the league and won four games on the bounce, there is no hiding the confidence in the Dark Blue ranks right now.
Equally, though, it is clear that confidence will not spill over into arrogance — a fact the teenage striker was keen to stress.
“We are in a good position and we’ve been getting good results. With boys like Maros Klimpl coming back from injury as well, we believe we can get even stronger.
“However, we’ve got where we are through hard work and we know that has to continue if we are going to stay at the top.
“We are taking nothing for granted and we know we have not achieved anything yet.”
Dundee will welcome Maros Klimpl back for the first time since knee surgery last month, and the decision facing boss Jocky Scott is whether or not the Slovakian should start. The midfielder has been looking good in training, but has not even had a bounce game since his return to fitness.
“Whether or not I bring Maros back is a problem, if you like, for me to consider, but it’s good to have him back because he was doing very well when he got injured.”
And, like Griffiths, Jocky believes Morton will provide a much sterner test than their league position suggests.
“I have a report from their game against Queen of the South last week and it tells me they were very unlucky to lose.
“As well as being big and strong, they are capable of playing decent football and it is up to us to meet the challenge they will provide.” |
