Motherwell vs Falkirk Predictions

Motherwell look the best bet when they host Falkirk at Fir Park on Saturday. Jens Berthel Askou’s side have been strong at home this season, winning ten of their Premiership games, while Falkirk have won six of their 15 away matches.

They are fourth in the Premiership, two places and 11 points above sixth-placed Falkirk. They have won 14, drawn 12 and lost five of their 31 games this season, while the visitors have 12 wins, seven draws and 12 defeats.

The hosts are rock-solid at the back. No other team has conceded fewer Premiership goals this season than Motherwell’s 23 in 31 games, and they have kept clean sheets in 12 of their last 14 home matches.

They are in form at home. Motherwell have won seven of their last nine Premiership games at home, and are unbeaten in their last 12 on their own ground.

The hosts have been prolific in attack this season, with Motherwell scoring two goals or more in 16 of their 31 Premiership games.

It has been profitable backing Motherwell at odds-on this season. Backing them when they have been favourites would have resulted in a 3.69-unit profit, with 12 wins from 19 such games.

Falkirk have been leaking goals lately, failing to keep a clean sheet in nine of their last ten Premiership games. They have conceded on each of their last four road trips.

A 2-0 home win for Motherwell looks a decent correct-score option. No Premiership team has played more matches with fewer than three goals this season than Motherwell’s 20, and they have won nine times in the Premiership by a two-goal margin.
