Falkirk head into this encounter full of confidence after edging Motherwell 1-0 in their previous meeting and with Hibernian suffering yet another dip in form, we predict a 2-1 home win. The hosts have been strong at home recently, winning three of their last five and averaging an impressive 2.40 goals per game on their own ground. Falkirk’s matches are often entertaining, with 70% of their last ten games seeing both teams score and home fixtures averaging 4.4 total goals. Midfielder Henry Cartwright pushing for a starting role after scoring the decisive goal against Motherwell.
Hibernian, meanwhile, are under pressure after suffering three consecutive defeats, including a narrow 2-1 loss to Celtic at the weekend. Their away form has been inconsistent, collecting just 1.00 point per game on the road, while failing to score in 60% of recent away matches. Midfielder Jamie McGrath is suspended, which further weakens an attack already averaging only 1.20 goals per game overall.
Considering Falkirk's fine home form and Hibernian's poor run, our prediction firmly points toward Home Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (56% of H2H meetings cleared this line).
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Saturday 9 May 2026 at 15:00.
