THE PREDICTION
Following a 0-2 defeat at home to Young Boys in their midweek top of the table clash, Basel now sit five points adrift of the league leaders ahead of St. Gallen’s visit to St. Jakob-Park. The two sides currently sit level on 19 points each with just one goal separating both teams on goal difference. Basel have scored seven more goals than St. Gallen, however the visitors boast the meaner defence conceding just nine league goals compared to Basel’s 15. This looks set to prove a battle between attack and defence, with the hosts set to start on the front foot offensively, with St. Gallen prepared to soak up pressure and hit them on the break. With so little to separate the two teams, both may be forced to settle for a point here, a result that will likely please St. Gallen more than it will the hosts.
