Falkirk v St Mirren: top-six push meets survival fight | OneFootball

Falkirk host St Mirren in the Scottish Premiership at the Falkirk Stadium on Saturday, 21 March 2026, with sixth facing 10th in a game that could shape a top-half push and a survival bid.

Falkirk won 2-0 away at St Mirren in January and sit sixth on 43 points, while St Mirren are 10th with 24. That recent head to head adds edge to a meeting between sides chasing very different targets.

The Bairns have momentum, taking four points from their last two league matches after a 5-1 home win over Kilmarnock and a draw at Aberdeen, plus a cup victory against Dundee United in between. St Mirren have lost four of their last five league games, the exception a draw at Livingston, though they did beat Partick Thistle in the cup.

Season numbers point to a balanced home side: 38 scored and 38 conceded, with 51% possession and 77.07% pass completion. Calvin Miller has seven league assists and Barney Stewart has six goals, offering supply and finish. St Mirren have scored 23 and conceded 46, and may lean on delivery from Declan John, who has five assists, with Mikael Mandron contributing eight goal involvements.

A home win would take The Bairns to 46 points and could strengthen their grip on sixth. Victory for St Mirren would move them to 27 points and may trim the gap to the pack above, an important step in the relegation fight.
