General match analysis
St. Gallen have a clearly superior away record: they have won 67% of their matches on the road, while Basel have lost as many as 75% of their home fixtures. The visitors create significantly more chances, averaging 19.67 shots and 6.67 shots on target per match, with an average xG of 2.13 compared to 1.23 for the hosts. Basel concede an average of 2.00 goals per home game and have kept no clean sheets, which should benefit St. Gallen’s attack. The visitors’ form over their last five matches has been poor, with four defeats, but Basel have also conceded 11 goals during this period and won only 2 of their 5 games. The hosts are more efficient in front of goal, with a conversion rate of 15% compared to their opponents’ 8%, but St. Gallen’s edge in chance creation and away results points to a narrow victory.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Basel have recorded BTTS in 75% of their league matches, while both teams scored in each of their last five games, with an average of 2.2 goals scored and 2.2 conceded. The hosts have kept no clean sheets, and St. Gallen have conceded as many as 2.4 goals per game across their last five fixtures, which significantly strengthens Basel’s chances of finding the net. The visitors create plenty of chances: their average xG stands at 2.13, with 19.67 shots and 6.67 shots on target per match, while Basel concede an average of 2.5 goals. Although St. Gallen’s season-long BTTS rate is only 33%, the current defensive form of both teams, combined with the league BTTS average of 72%, points towards a goal for each side. Therefore, BTTS - No does not mean an automatic 0:0 or that neither team will score; it means that at least one team fails to score.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The match profile clearly favors goals: the league-wide average is as high as 3.78 goals, and 76% of its matches finish with at least three goals. Basel have scored and conceded 2.2 goals per game on average across their last 5 outings, with at least 3 goals scored in each of those matches. St. Gallen have endured a difficult defensive spell, conceding an average of 2.4 goals over their last five games, while their attacking xG stands at a solid 2.12. The hosts average 21 shots per match, compared with 19.67 for the visitors, and both teams average more than 6.5 shots on target. Over 1.5 goals is the strongest pick, as both teams have had 100% of their league matches finish with at least two goals, backed by high attacking potential and Basel’s weak defense, which has yet to keep a clean sheet.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Basel are slight favourites in the HT/FT scenario of leading at the break and winning, as they led at half-time in 40% of their last five matches, compared with 20% for St. Gallen. In this sequence, the hosts averaged 1.0 goals scored before the break, while conceding 1.2, with St. Gallen trailing at half-time in 60% of their last five appearances. After the interval, Basel have averaged 1.2 goals in their last five matches, while the visitors lost 80% of their games during this period and conceded an average of 2.4 goals per match. St. Gallen remain dangerous, having won 67% of their matches this season and recording an xG of 2.13, which is why half-time draw scenarios are also relevant. However, Basel’s current 40% win rate compared with the opponents’ 20% shifts the forecast towards 1/1.
