History of the Falkirk v Queen of the South fixture

Falkirk prepare to entertain Queen of the South at Ochilview (Temporary) on Saturday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Bairns are clearly on top, having won 23 and lost only 6 of the 38 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Ochilview (Temporary) was less than a year ago, in December 2002, with Falkirk annihilating their visitors 5-0 in a Scottish Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Falkirk have lost just once in their last six home games, winning four and drawing the other one. These high-scoring games have yielded a total of 16 goals for the Bairns, with 6 goals against.

The The Doonhamers have had a decent run of form away from home recently, with 3 victories and just 1 loss from the last six. Just 7 goals have scored in these games, though to be fair only a measly 3 have been let in at the wrong end.

Falkirk's 4 points from 2 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 4th position. Queen o.t.S. see themselves just below half way in the Bells Scottish Division One, showing a record of 3 points from their 2 games played so far,
