Luzern form and stats
0-2-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Super League numbers at home for Luzern so far this season. All in all it has been a very rough period for Luzern who hasn’t won a league-game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against Young Boys, 91 days ago.
Luzern shared the glory with Young Boys in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1. The Luzern goalkeeper Vaso Vasic was crucial in the match against Young Boys last time out, making six saves. Goalkeeper Vaso Vasic got the top rating on the team in that game; 8.24 out of ten. Vasic stopped the opponent with six saves.
Preceding that game was the away draw at Basel that finished 1-1.This is expected to be a close game, with Luzern perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Luzern as a small favourite), we find six games. Luzern has won two of these, drawn one and lost three.
There will be little rest for Luzern after this match as they are travelling to FC Schaffhausen for a Swiss Cup game in only three days.
The Luzern fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 8 goals in 5 league matches. Luzern have conceded 12 goals in these home games, a significant number.
St. Gallen form and stats
The visitors, who have the most conceded goals (24) in Super League, are W1-D0-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Super League. A depressing four defeats in a row for St. Gallen in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Lausanne Sport.
Gallen won their last game, 2-1 versus Servette played at home. Jérémy Guillemenot came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Servette last time out, making the manager P. Zeidler feel like a tactical genius. The end of the last match, against Servette, was very satisfying as Jérémy Guillemenot scored the winning goal deep into overtime. Musah Nuhu was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.15. The defender Nuhu won 3 of 4 duels.
Prior to that match, the Gallen manager P. Zeidler faced defeat when travelling to Young Boys and losing 1-2.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eleven similar matches played by St. Gallen in our archives, and the results are: five wins for St. Gallen, one draw and five defeats.
Gallen have another fixture away in just three days, a Swiss Cup match versus Chiasso. A grim programme for them!
Gallen have scored 7 goals on their travels this season, from 5 away games in the league. The Gallen defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 15 goals in their away games.
