Falkirk v Dunfermline Athletic : Championship match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sat 26th Oct, 15:00 BST, Falkirk Community Stadium, Falkirk

The Championship is the focus for both Falkirk and Dunfermline Athletic on Saturday afternoon, as bosses John McGlynn and James McPake go head to head at the Falkirk Community Stadium. All stats, including an in-depth look at the form of both sides and head-to-head records, will change as you click through each of the seventeen betting markets via the tabs below. Odds and, of course, KickOff's predictions will too.


Best Tip: Falkirk to win

As training goes on this week and the Falkirk players ready themselves for this clash, the bookmakers are predicting success for them. The odds and our pre-match statistics below suggest the same, as does the historical head-to-head (H2H) data we factor into our predictive algorithms. The Falkirk Community Stadium has not been a happy hunting ground for for Dunfermline in the past, and we we think that will be the case again on Saturday afternoon. A win / draw / win home win is our tip.
