In a surprising turn of events in the Scottish Championship, Raith Rovers defeated Falkirk 3-1 at the Falkirk Stadium. The AI had predicted a Falkirk victory with a 53.6% probability, making this result a clear upset. Falkirk started strong, with Calvin Miller scoring in the 17th minute.

Raith Rovers were more aggressive with fouls, committing 16 compared to Falkirk's 14, and accumulated more yellow cards (5 against 3).
Falkirk's recent form has been inconsistent, with a mix of wins, losses, and a draw. Their upcoming match against Partick Thistle presents a challenge, especially considering Partick Thistle's recent struggles, having lost their last two games. The head-to-head record between Falkirk and Partick Thistle suggests a potentially high-scoring affair.
Raith Rovers, on the other hand, have been showing resilience, with two wins and three draws in their last five games. Their next match against Greenock Morton at Stark's Park offers a good opportunity to continue their positive momentum. Historically, matches between Raith Rovers and Greenock Morton have been closely contested, often resulting in draws.
This game marks a significant win for Raith Rovers, especially given the late flurry of goals. Analyzing previous games, Falkirk had won their last two home league games against Raith Rovers before this match. Raith Rovers showed great character to take advantage of Falkirk's late red card and turn the game on its head.
On April 19, 2025, Falkirk will host Raith Rovers at the Falkirk Stadium in a Scottish Championship clash. AI is predicting a Falkirk win with a 53.6% probability, contrasting with Raith Rovers' 21.9% chance. The draw probability stands at 24.5%.
