Hibernian prepare to entertain Falkirk at Easter Road Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Hibees are clearly on top, having won 47 and lost only 18 of the 80 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Easter Road Stadium was less than a year ago, in November 2005, with Falkirk inflicting a narrow 2-3 defeat upon the The Hibees in a Scottish Premier match.
