Recent respective form guides
Falkirk's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Bairns have scored 5, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
St. Johnstone's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. A generous 8 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.
Falkirk find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 36 games have yielded only 29 points. St. Johnstone see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 46 points from their 36 games played so far,
