Our predictions for Falkirk vs Dundee
Match Prediction: Falkirk 1-2 Dundee
Falkirk's recent form has been a bit of a rollercoaster, but they've shown they can nick a win away from home. They'll be looking to exploit Dundee's shaky away record, especially after that thumping at Aberdeen. Falkirk's midfield could control the game if they keep it tight at the back, but they need to be clinical up top.
Dundee, on the other hand, have had a mixed bag but can be dangerous on their day, as seen against Celtic. They'll need to be solid defensively to keep Falkirk at bay, but their attack could cause problems if they find their rhythm. This one could go either way, but Dundee might just have the edge if they play their cards right.
Form Guide & Team Overview
Falkirk
Falkirk's recent results show they can compete with the big boys, drawing with Rangers and beating Motherwell. However, their home form has been patchy, with two draws and a defeat in their last three at home. They'll need to tighten up at the back to stand a chance against Dundee, but their midfield has the potential to dictate the tempo of the game.
