Aberdeen and Falkirk meet in the Premiership separated by just a single point, with Aberdeen on 11 points from 10 matches in 9th place and Falkirk on 12 points in 7th. Neither side has broken away from the mid-table pack, and both need points from this game to move up. Aberdeen lost 2-3 at home to their opponents in their latest match, but before that they had thrashed a league rival 3-1 and had a cup game in which they scored as many as 4 goals. Falkirk, meanwhile, are in good form, on a winning run capped by a 3-0 thrashing in their latest match. The two sides' attacks have scored about the same, 12 goals from 10 matches, but Falkirk's defence has conceded 12, just one fewer than Aberdeen's 13. The pattern of Aberdeen's home games suggests the hosts will dominate possession and push forward, while Falkirk are likely to sit back and wait to counter, especially early on when Falkirk often score quickly. Falkirk's defence, though, has gaps to exploit in the second half. Aberdeen must apply the pressure and find a goal first so the game does not drag on and turn into pressure on themselves.
