St. Gallen form and stats

Overall Super League stats playing at home this season for St. Gallen are 6-6-4 (wins-draws-losses). With Gallen having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager Zeidler.

The St. Gallen fans got no joy from their last match, also played here at Kybunpark: A 0-2 defeat against Young Boys (placed 1st). Maglica, defender, was given a rating of 7.04/10 in that game, top of the team. Maglica won 4 of 6 duels.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Some stats: A review of the 29 latest league games reveals that 22 of them had at least one goal from each team.

A decent goal production from Gallen in their home games so far, with 27 goals from 16 league matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. St. Gallen have conceded 20 in these home matches.
