Recent respective form guides
Hamilton Academical's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Accies have scored 4, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Falkirk's away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the Bairns have hit 5 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Hamilton Ac. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 3 points from 4 matches. Falkirk find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 4 games have yielded only 1 points.
