Best Tip: Both teams to score

Having studied all relevant stats, including historical head-to-head (H2H) data, we predict this tie will deliver both elation and misery to both home and away supporters. We expect both Falkirk and Motherwell to find the back of the net during the 90 minutes, but the ultimate victor of the fixture seems less clear. The odds point towards a both teams to score bet, and that's our recommendation.
