Rangers v Falkirk prediction
Our model gives Rangers a 66% chance of winning this Scottish Premiership game. A Falkirk win is 14% and a draw 20%. Our predicted score is Rangers 2–0 Falkirk (10%), though no one exact score is likely on its own. Rangers are expected to score 2.2 goals and Falkirk 1.0, 3.2 between them. Both sides are more likely than not to score (55%) and three or more goals is 62%.
We expect Rangers to have 20.1 shots (6.9 on target) and Falkirk 8.6 (2.9 on target), and corners at 7.5 to 3.1. That points to Rangers doing more of the attacking. Kevin Kelsy (Rangers) is the player we expect to shoot most, with 3.1 shots if they start. Ryan Don Naderi (Rangers) leads for shots on target, at 1.2. Coll Donaldson of Falkirk is the most booked player in either squad, once every 2 games in 2025/26.
On form, Rangers have four wins, two draws and no defeats from their last six games, and Falkirk have five wins, no draws and one defeat. Of their last five meetings on our records, Rangers have won three, Falkirk none, and two were drawn. The last meeting ended Falkirk 1–2 Rangers, in Sept 2026. For Bawler's pick we have gone with Rangers or Draw, Rangers Over 15.5 Shots and Ryan Don Naderi 1+ Shot on Target. The chance all three land is 50% on our numbers, so the fair price is Evens, or 1.98.
