St. Gallen form and stats

Overall Super League stats at home this season for St. Gallen are 5-2-4 (wins-draw-losses). The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Kybunpark.

Gallen's last game was hosting Basel (placed 2nd) and winning 3-1. Prior to that, an away loss at Vaduz.

This is expected to be a close game, with St. Gallen perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Gallen as a small favourite), we find five games. St. Gallen has won zero of these, drawn one and lost four.

The manager P. Zeidler will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Luzern in only four days.

The Gallen fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 11 matches. Gallen's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 13 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
