Best Tip: Falkirk to win

A Championship home win for John McGlynn's Falkirk team win in the win / draw / win market is what we're predicting. Stats suggest they're in strong form across a number of key metrics, and they should have too much for the opposition. The odds from the bookmakers suggest the same, and when that happens you've know you're not going against the market. A Falkirk win is the bet we'd suggest, but it could be a close one.
