Basel vs St. Gallen Prediction Prediction
Basel’s four-game unbeaten run in the Swiss Super League came to a crashing end last weekend. But 14 of their 25 points this season have come at home.
St. Gallen saw their faint title hopes effectively end with their defeat to Luzern. That made it three losses in a row for Peter Zeidler’s side and they need to buck this trend, if they are to remain in control of their destiny in the European qualification race.
Although one side could nick the win in a tight game, we are backing the spoils to be shared.
