Falkirk - Celtic

Sunday afternoon at Falkirk Stadium, Falkirk welcome Celtic for a challenging Premiership matchday 12 encounter. The hosts enter the fixture in fine form, having secured three consecutive league victories, most recently a narrow 1-0 win against Aberdeen on 28 October 2026. While Falkirk must navigate this test without the injured Leon McCann, their expected XI features a stable defensive unit led by Ryan Strain and Lewis Neilson. The home side will look to maintain their recent momentum and improve upon their previous meeting with the visitors, which ended in a 2-1 defeat on 29 August 2026.

Celtic arrive looking to regain consistency after a 2-2 draw with Dundee United on 28 October 2026. The visitors possess significant attacking depth, with Kasper Waarts Hoegh and Camilo Duran expected to lead the line. Despite recent European setbacks, Celtic remain a formidable force domestically, evidenced by their emphatic 7-1 victory over Heart of Midlothian in mid-October. With Callum McGregor anchoring the midfield, the visitors aim to assert control early at Falkirk Stadium to overcome their hosts in this high-stakes Premiership clash.
