Latest football prediction Falkirk vs Dundee United

Falkirk have enjoyed a remarkable resurgence in recent years, with two successive promotions after winning the Scottish League One title in 2023–24 and the Scottish Championship title in 2024–25.

Last season's Second Division title has seen them return to the Scottish Premiership this season, with Sunday's opening game marking Falkirk's first return to the top flight since their relegation in 2009–10.

Despite a somewhat shaky end to the 2024–25 season – winning two, drawing one and losing three of their final six games – Falkirk quickly settled down in pre-season with three wins and one defeat.

That form was maintained at the start of the 2025–26 season, when the team nicknamed "The Bairns" won three and drew one – winning on penalties – in four Scottish League Cup group stage matches, thereby topping Group A.

Falkirk will now hope to build on their good form with a win on the opening day of the Scottish Premiership, when they host Dundee United - who have also enjoyed an impressive 2024–25 campaign.

After a shock relegation in the 2022–23 season, Dundee United immediately returned to the Premiership by winning the 2023–24 Championship.

Manager Jim Goodwin, who took charge in March 2023, led the team through their first season back in the top flight in impressive fashion, finishing fourth in the Scottish Premiership and securing qualification for the UEFA Conference League.

Dundee United started the 2025–26 season with two consecutive 1–0 wins over UNA Strassen in the Conference League second qualifying round, which secured the right to face Rapid Vienna in the next round.

Looking to build on last season's success and maintain their winning streak ahead of the first leg against the Austrians, Dundee United will be determined to take all three points in their opening game on Sunday.

Although Dundee United have a better head-to-head record in recent meetings, Falkirk have won both of their last two home games against the Orange outfit.
