Falkirk's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Bairns have scored 5, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Dunfermline A.'s away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the Pars have hit 4 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Falkirk at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Bairns will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
