The most recent encounter between these two sides at The Falkirk Stadium was earlier this season, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Premier match.

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 4, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

The away form of St. Mirren is pretty dire, attaining just 3 draws from the previous six away games. While the Buddies have hit 6 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Falkirk see themselves just below half way in the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier, showing a record of 36 points from their 31 games played so far, St. Mirren are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 26 points from 30 matches.
