Dunfermline vs Falkirk Prediction 27.12.2024 | Championship

• Competition: Championship
• Date: 27.12.2024
• Kickoff: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CEST
• Venue: East End Park (Dunfermline)

The Championship enters its second half of the season, and the two teams involved in this clash have vastly different ambitions.

Dunfermline sits in 9th place on the table, just three points above the relegation zone. This position leads to a playoff to avoid relegation, something the club will undoubtedly strive to avoid. Their recent form has been troubling, as they’ve lost their last two matches without scoring a single goal.

Falkirk, on the other hand, is in a completely different situation. Their ambition is promotion, and so far, things are going well as they sit atop the table with 41 points, 5 ahead of Livingston. In their previous match, they secured a hard-fought 1-0 home victory against Hamilton, which proved more challenging than expected.

Dunfermline vs Falkirk pick: FALKIRK TO WIN

Dunfermline appears to be a more motivated side when playing at home, but even that hasn’t been enough to improve their league position significantly. Earlier this season, Falkirk already secured a comfortable 2-0 victory at this stadium, showcasing their superiority without much drama.

In addition to fighting for the top spot, Falkirk is eager to redeem themselves after a heavy 5-2 defeat in their last away match against Ayr. This adds an extra layer of determination for the visitors in this encounter.
