FootyMAD's Falkirk match preview

History of the Falkirk v Rangers fixture

Rangers face a trip to Falkirk at The Falkirk Stadium on Saturday afternoon, determined to keep up their impressive record at the venue, having pummelled their opponents 51 times out of 78.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was earlier this season, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Falkirk's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Bairns have scored 6, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Rangers's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occassions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. A generous 11 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Falkirk are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 21 points from 27 matches. Rangers find themselves in a respectable 3rd position, courtesy of the 46 points they have accumulated from 27 games.
