Falkirk and Motherwell face off at the Falkirk Stadium this Saturday in the 35th round of the Scottish Premiership. In the Championship Group, the hosts are sixth and Motherwell is fourth with 57 points. Read on to find our prediction of the match.
After spending over a decade out of the SPL, Falkirk have had a happy return, confirmed to finish in the top six in the first season back. Before the split, the Bairns recorded 46 points in the 33 games, six points ahead of seventh.
However, in recent weeks they’ve struggled, only winning three of their last 10 outings in all competitions (5L, 2D). Right ahead of this game, they lost 3-1 to Celtic, conceding 2+ for the fourth time in five games.
Falkirk will be facing a confident Motherwell side coming straight off a 3-2 win over Glasgow giants Rangers. This win put the Steelmen six points ahead of fifth to consolidate their push for European football.
Another win on Saturday is definitely on their minds, even though recently they’ve struggled in this particular fixture. In the three meetings this season Motherwell lost twice, and one ended in a draw.
The most recent, a 3-2 loss, stretched their winless run against Falkirk to five meetings. Motherwell’s last win over Falkirk, and the only one in nine matches, dates back to 2009.
