Key Players
- Kevin Nisbet is Aberdeen's top goalscorer this season with six goals in 26 appearances.
- Barney Stewart has scored five goals in 10 Premiership appearances for Falkirk.
- Barney’s clinical finish and ability to run behind the defence could unlock an Aberdeen backline that has looked out of sync.
- With Falkirk pressing high up the field, the visitors should be able to create enough opportunities for a goal.
Betting Insights
- Falkirk have managed to score just 12 goals on their travels, so at least one of these teams is likely to be shut out.
- A home goal looks more likely than an away goal and we will back Both Teams to Score - No at the higher odds.
Prediction
The Bairns will be the favorites to win this game and, given the strength of their current form and recent head-to-head dominance, we will back Falkirk to take the points.
