Matchday two of the Scottish Premiership kicks off with Motherwell squaring off with Falkirk at Fir Park. The hosts have been in outstanding form this season, extending their unbeaten streak to four matches with three wins along the way, which leads our prediction towards a home success.
Motherwell are enjoying a great run of form at the moment, avoiding defeat in their last four competitive matches of the 2026-27 season (W3, D1). They'll be eager to extend that impressive run when they return to league action.
Their most recent match ended in a 1-1 away draw to Finland's HJK Helsinki in the first leg of the Europa Conference League third qualifying round. That outcome halted a two-match winning streak in this competition.
Before this, the Well opened their 2026-27 Scottish Premiership campaign on a positive note, silencing Hibernian on their own turf with a 2-1 victory. That success leaves them third in the standings.
Falkirk's start to the 2026-27 season has not been ideal. John McGlynn's men failed to reach the knockout rounds of the Scottish League Cup after finishing bottom of the table in the ranking of second-placed teams.
As if that wasn't enough, the Bairns suffered their first league defeat, losing 2-0 against St. Mirren in front of their home crowd. They are one of five teams that have dropped three points, leaving them at the bottom of the table.

Our Motherwell vs Falkirk Prediction
Motherwell have struggled to get the better of this opponent in previous league meetings, going six games without a win. However, given the hosts' impressive form in the early stages of the season, there's reason to believe they can end that winless run.
With three wins in four competitive matches, they take on Falkirk, whose confidence is low after their opening defeat to St. Mirren. That's not all the visitors have lost four league games dating back to the previous season. This alone raises doubts over their chances of pulling off an upset. Our Motherwell vs Falkirk prediction: Motherwell wins.
