Their next Europa League Qualifiers match will see St Gallen playing opponents Benfica on Thursday.
All St Gallen v Benfica game predictions, stats and user poll are shown below - as well as up-to-date odds.
St Gallen will be looking for a repeat result of the 0-3 Swiss Cup success versus Stade Lausanne-Ouchy.
For St Gallen, the scorers were Tom Gaal (8'), Lukas Görtler (65') and Christian Witzig (90').
Three or more goals per game were recorded in 5 of the past 6 fixtures where St Gallen have been involved. Opposition teams scored 7 of them in this period whereas St Gallen managed a tally of 11.
Benfica will go into this meeting following on from a 1-3 Primeira Liga win in the defeat of Estoril in their last outing.
In that game, Benfica had 52% possession and 19 shots at goal with 8 on target. For Benfica, the goals were scored by Richard Ríos (7'), Alexander Bah (15') and Silva (16'). Estoril got 16 attempts at goal with 6 on target. Peixinho (91') was the scorer for Estoril.
Benfica have been a threat going forward of late, having scored 15 times in their previous 6 matches. This doesn’t mask the fact that Benfica have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 5 of those same outings. That kind of trend might not be sustained into this match, though.
Looking at these two teams, we feel that Benfica will probably be able to create a high number of chances and successful shots on target.
At the other end, St Gallen could well find it tough getting goals but we do see them hitting back at some stage.
We reckon that it will be a comfortable 1-3 victory for Benfica by the conclusion of the game.
Turning to the betting odds on the 90 minute result market, a win for St Gallen is available for 5, betting on the draw is 4.2 and betting on the winning team to be Benfica is 1.53. These are the best of the returns that can be secured at this very moment.
