Falkirk are expected to line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Scott Bain in goal and a back four of Adams, Henderson, Allan, and Lissah. This setup provides a solid defensive structure while allowing midfielders like Spencer and Tait to control the tempo and support the attacking quartet of Wilson, Williams, Miller, and Graham.

This formation should provide a strong defensive base while allowing midfielders Slattery, Fadinger, Watt, and Just to push forward and support the attacking duo of Maswanhise and Hendry.

• Graham vs Welsh: Brian Graham's physical presence and goal-scoring ability will be tested against Stephen Welsh's defensive solidity.
• Spencer vs Just: Brad Spencer's control in midfield will be crucial against Elijah Just's dynamic play.
• Tait (Falkirk): Dylan Tait's ability to dictate the tempo from midfield will be key for Falkirk's strategy.
• Maswanhise (Motherwell): Tawanda Maswanhise's pace and finishing could prove decisive for Motherwell's attacking threat.
