Motherwell have won four of their last five league meetings with Dunfermline.
The Steelmen have scored exactly twice in their last three games at home to the Pars (W2 L1).
Two players, Joe Cardle and Michael Higdon, scored braces in the meeting between the sides earlier this season: both also scored last time out in the league.
Motherwell have taken just two points from their last five SPL games combined.
The Steelmen have won only one of their last eight league games at home.
A win last time out ended a run of seven defeats in eight games for Dunfermline in the league (one draw).
All four of the Pars' league wins this season have come on the road.
