History of the Falkirk v St. Mirren fixture

Falkirk prepare to entertain St. Mirren at The Falkirk Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Bairns are clearly on top, having won 46 and lost only 19 of the 88 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at The Falkirk Stadium was less than a year ago, in April 2004, the Bairns carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Scottish Division One match.
