Super league clash a tactical chess match
FC St. Gallen will try to turn FC Zurich over early and pin the visitors back, but Carlos Bernegger's side will look to be compact and control the ball in the central areas, so Sunday's Super league meeting at Kybunpark is a classic chess match. Enrico Maassen has kept the identity of his team intact this season as St. Gallen have been attacking the flanks with pace and numbers from a back-three, but Bernegger will look to bring some stability to Zurich after a rocky period. This FC St. Gallen vs FC Zurich preview suggests a tight contest.
St. Gallen are favored at 1.6 with Zurich 4.75 and the draw 4.3, so it is obvious the hosts are seen as the superior side and that is probably true. However, the hosts have won one, drawn one and lost two of their four home games this season, so they are beatable, particularly as they have been slipping of late. For FC St. Gallen vs FC Zurich prediction, the home side still looks the likelier winner.
St. Gallen's last two results have seen them lose 6-3 away to Lyon and 0-3 at home to Norwich, although there were mitigating factors to those results. The Esso Super league side will be able to play with the ball on top for large periods of the game against them.
Goals should flow in a lively Super league affair
St. Gallen have won six, drawn one and lost three of their ten games across all current competitions this term, which is a much better record than their visitors have been able to manage in the same period (Won 3, Drawn 1, Lost 6). But St. Gallen have scored just four goals in four home matches across all competitions, and their front four have not looked like clicking in front of goal. Meanwhile, Zurich have hit eight in their four away matches across all contests, so they can be dangerous on the break. Our FC St. Gallen vs FC Zurich betting tips point to Over 2.5 goals at 1.34 and Both Teams To Score at 1.41, which looks a good play here as the two sides should put on a lively game and it probably won't be a walkover for the home side.
