Anthony Eadson is anticipating goals at the Falkirk Stadium and has picked out the two players most likely to be on the scoresheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Premium Tip<\/th>Odds<\/th>Why we’re backing it<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Jacob Murrell to score anytime<\/strong><\/td>12\/5 (bet365<\/a>)<\/td>Jacob Murrell has been Falkirk’s one reliable source of goals, netting four times in seven appearances for a side that has otherwise found scoring hard. He comes up against a Kilmarnock defence that has shipped 20 goals already, more than any other team in the division, and has kept just two clean sheets. Falkirk have scored in each of their last two home meetings with Kilmarnock, running up five and three goals, and Murrell is the obvious man to lead the line again. At 12\/5 for him to find the net, there is a solid case.<\/td><\/tr>
Greg Kiltie to score anytime<\/strong><\/td>4\/1 (Sky Bet<\/a>)<\/td>At the other end, Greg Kiltie is worth siding with to keep up Kilmarnock’s scoring. The attacking midfielder has three of their goals this season and has started all nine league games, and Kilmarnock have found the net in each of their last four outings. Falkirk, for all their effort, have won just one of four at home and have hardly been watertight, conceding 12 times in nine games. In a fixture that has produced goals at both ends before, Kiltie at 4\/1 with Sky Bet adds a tidy second string to the bet.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How Falkirk go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Falkirk go into this on a high after a 2-1 win at Hibernian<\/a> last time out, though home form remains the concern, with just one win from four at the Falkirk Stadium. Jacob Murrell has been the bright spark with four goals in seven games, and against the division’s leakiest defence the hosts will back themselves to add to a modest tally of nine goals. Ethan Ross and Ben Krauhaus have also found the net from midfield. Ninth on nine points, Falkirk know a win here would lift them clear of the early relegation conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How Kilmarnock go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kilmarnock come in on the back of a wild 3-2 home win over Motherwell<\/a>, a result that lifted some gloom around a season of defensive struggles. No side in the division has conceded more than their 20 goals in nine games, and that frailty has left them 11th despite a decent recent return of two wins in their last five. Greg Kiltie is the main threat with three goals, and on the road it has been a mixed bag of one win, one draw and two defeats. At a ground where Falkirk have their own troubles, though, Kilmarnock will sense a chance to climb the table.<\/p>\n\n\n

These two have only met three times in the Scottish Premiership, but Falkirk have won every one, including a 5-1 rout at home last February and a 3-1 win earlier that campaign. Kilmarnock have managed just two goals across the three games, which makes Falkirk’s record against them stand out even if their wider home form has been patchy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Falkirk vs Kilmarnock score prediction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Goals look the way to go here. Both sides defend nervously, both have a dangerman in form, and the fixture’s recent history is full of them. Falkirk’s home record is patchy, but their superior cutting edge through Murrell should just about see them over the line in an open contest. Score prediction: Falkirk 2-1 Kilmarnock.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
