Recent respective form guides

St. Mirren have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. Only 5 goals have been registered in this time, with 6 in the wrong end.

Falkirk's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. Bairns have conceded 7 goals in these games, and only hit 3 in reply.

St. Mirren are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 33 points from 33 matches. Falkirk see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 43 points from their 34 games played so far,
