Falkirk v Dundee Utd: top-six push meets form rebuild | OneFootball

Falkirk host Dundee Utd in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday, 14 February 2026 at the Falkirk Stadium, with the hosts looking to strengthen their grip on sixth while the visitors aim to halt a four-match league losing run.

Falkirk claimed a 3-0 win at Tannadice in November after a 2-2 draw on the opening day, so the recent head to head leans their way.

The Bairns arrive with three league wins in their last five, including a 1-0 victory over Dundee and a 2-1 success at Livingston. The Arabs have lost four straight in the league, though they did beat Ayr Utd in the Scottish Cup.

John McGlynn's side average 50% possession and eight clean sheets, with Calvin Miller supplying six league assists and 10 combined goals and assists. Brian Graham leads their league scoring with four. United have conceded 40 and kept only three clean sheets, but Zachary Sapsford's six league goals and Ivan Dolcek's five remain key threats, with Amar Fatah on four.

Expect The Bairns to use their crossing volume and tidy 44.3% shooting accuracy to probe, while United may look to set pieces and deliveries from wide, having scored from set pieces this season and posting a higher open-play cross accuracy than their hosts.

A home win would lift Falkirk to 42 points and could nudge them towards fifth. United would reach 28 with victory, potentially drawing level with seventh placed Aberdeen and easing pressure from the pack below.
