If they wanted to kill Morgana off, I think that they should have made her a more credible threat. As it is, Merlin is not only more powerful magically, he has the advantage of knowing about Morgana's magic while she remains in ignorance about his. He also has the support of many of the magical folk because of his and Arthur's supposed destiny - at this point, I'll believe Kilgharrah's prophecy when I see it come to pass, not before.

Morgana is the underdog in the magic vs magic stakes, and doesn't even know it.
