St. Gallen are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Sion are struggling to avoid relegation.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Gallen and Sion.

St. Gallen form and stats

7 victories, 6 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what St. Gallen have to build on here at Kybunpark in the Super League. When St. Gallen hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Zürich, Winterthur and St. Gallen), they have won 2 of 4 matches!

St. Gallen drew their last game, 2-2 away at Grasshopper (placed 6th). A painful moment in the game against Grasshopper was the missed penalty kick from Lath in the 90th minute. A goal there would obviously have changed the match and probably the outcome. Midfielder Quintillà was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.85 (out of ten) in that game. Quintillà hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 50 successful passes (of 57 total).

Before that, St. Gallen played out a draw 1-1 when visiting Luzern.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Gallen's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 4 games, won 3 matches, drawn 1 and lost 0.

Take note that 8 of the most recent 10 league matches from these players have had at least one goal from each team.

The St. Gallen fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 33 goals in 17 league matches. St. Gallen have conceded 21 in these home matches.

Sion form and stats

5 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses. That’s the product of Sion playing as the away team in the Super League this season. It's looking increasingly bleak for Sion who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Zürich was the last time a defeat was avoided.

This match can not go any worse than the last one, the home loss versus Luzern with 1-2 on the scoreboard. Grgić got a match rating of 7.4 in that game, top player of the team. Grgić scored one goal, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 40 successful passes (of 48 total).

A loss against Young Boys was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Goal hungry football fans should note that 9 of this team's 12 most recent league rounds have ended with at least three goals.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Sion have scored 24 goals in 17 league games away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Sion struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 32 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

This was the score when the teams met previously this season; Sion - Gallen 0-4. As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's three St. Gallen victories, three draws and four Sion wins. Over/under statistics; seven of these games ended with three goals or more, three matches with two goals or less.
