Fight adversary misguidedly creating work throughout the night (9,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

graveyard shift

'work throughout the night' is the definition.

'fight adversary misguidedly' is the wordplay.
'misguidedly' is an anagram indicator.
'fight'+'adversary'='fightadversary'
'fightadversary' is an anagram of 'GRAVEYARD SHIFT'.

'creating' is the link.

(Another definition for graveyard shift that I've seen is " work so late".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
