Recent respective form guides
Falkirk's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Bairns have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
St. Mirren's away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. Only 5 goals have been registered in this time, with 7 leaked at the wrong end.
Falkirk's 28 points from 16 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 4th position. St. Mirren are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 20 points from 16 matches.
