AI match recap

St Johnstone return home with a clearer platform than Falkirk, whose first league win arrived only in midweek and came at the cost of a short turnaround. The Saints have shown they can stay competitive against stronger opposition and Fowler gives them a focal point in the final third. Falkirk carry renewed belief, but their reported injury list and their record in Perth place extra strain on a thin squad. Expect St Johnstone to take the initiative, with Falkirk dangerous when the hosts lose structure after attacking.

Injuries and absences

No home absence is confirmed in the supplied feed, but Falkirk's external injury reporting is substantial and inconsistent across outlets. If the reported group is unavailable, Falkirk lose rotation options and may have to protect their wide defenders and midfield runners more cautiously.
