Recent respective form guides
Falkirk's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Bairns have scored 5, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Hearts's away form is none too clever either, with a marvellous return of five wins and one defeat from the last six. Those games have seen the Jambo's pummel 14 goals, and let in 4.
Falkirk are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 5 points from 8 matches. Hearts are leading the way in the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier, with their 8 games giving them a return of 24 points.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Bairns at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Jambo's come away with an easy victory. Away win
