Falkirk will be looking for an improved result here following the 5-0 League One loss in their previous game against Partick Thistle.

Zak Rudden (30'), Scott Tiffoney (32'), Brian Graham (41', 59') and Joe Cardle (72') scored for Partick Thistle.

It has been seldom in recent times that Falkirk have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that The Bairns have been scored against in 6 of their previous 6 games, leaking 13 goals in the process. We will see whether or not that trend can be sustained into this next match.

Going into this encounter, Falkirk are unbeaten in their previous 5 league matches at home.

Montrose
