- Recent form: FC Sion Sitten have won two, tied two and lost one of their last five Super League games.
- Away record: FC St. Gallen have won seven, tied five and lost two of their 14 Super League away games in 2025-2026.
- Head-to-head: St. Gallen have failed to win on their last two trips to Sion.
FC St. Gallen are the best bet to win the match
St. Gallen are unbeaten in their last five Super League matches (W2, D3) but have drawn consecutive 1-1 games against Lugano, so there’s little to separate the teams on current form. Sion sit fifth in the Super League 2025-2026 standings with 45 points from 30 games while St. Gallen are well in the title race in second place with 55 points after as many matches.
But it is St. Gallen’s away form that is the more impressive of these two sides, having won seven, drawn five and lost only twice away in the Super League in 2025-2026. FC Sion have won only one of the last three meetings and the two sides have split the results evenly (one win apiece and one draw) in their most recent three head-to-head matches.
St. Gallen’s style and directness will test Sion
Sion's approach
Didier Tholot’s Sion side play with possession and like to control the pace of games from the back. Their back four stay structured and two central midfielders sit behind the number 10 to create a double pivot that controls the transition play and is the primary way they control the rhythm of the game.
St. Gallen's approach
Enrico Maassen likes to push the pace and play a high-tempo, direct brand of soccer with two strikers in the side and an aggressive pressing strategy that is designed to force opponents into mistakes. St. Gallen’s pressing style is designed to disrupt the build-up play and the transition game, so this should be an interesting chess match where Maassen’s blueprint can work in his favor.
Home record
Sion have a solid home record of seven wins, five draws and three defeats from 15 league games and will be tough to break down, but the tempo of St. Gallen’s game could suit them more in this fixture than their recent results against Lugano suggest.
Both teams should score
