Falkirk face a trip to Hibernian at Easter Road Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Bairns will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 49 and win only 19 of the 85 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in February 2009, when they played out a goalless draw in a Scottish Premier match.
