St. Gallen hosts Basel in round 33 of the Swiss Super League. The match will be played on Wednesday, July 22nd at Kybunpark (St. Gallen)
After the quarantine, Young Boys made a gift to St. Gallen, having lost eight points and missed the first line in the standings. However, the Greens didn’t believe in their happiness, and having shown off on the throne for several rounds, they lost to Thun in the last match of the tournament. Now St. Gallen is second in the standings again. The team may get another chance in the last round of the championship since it will play against the Yellow-Blacks in the head-to-head meeting. But in order for that game to keep the intrigue in the fight for gold, it is no longer desirable to lose points.

Basel is failing the third season in a row since any place except the first one is a failure for it. FC Young Boys will not allow it to win the champion’s title. The margin amounts to 8 points, and the leader will probably not lose such a handicap in the last four rounds. Nevertheless, Rotblau still have something to fight for in the tournament. Medals (silver or bronze) are not of particular value for Basel. But only the second line provides a ticket to the Champions League qualification. Therefore, Basel will fight for it. And it is six points behind the second St. Gallen. If Basel wins now, the gap will be only three points. Taking into account the fact that St. Gallen will play against Young Boys in the last round and may well be left without points, Basel's chances of getting into the Champions League become quite real.
Based on the available layouts, it is quite possible to expect the visitors’ victory in this match. For some reason, the bookmakers do not believe in it, exposing the grandee of Swiss football as an underdog. But objectively, Basel surpasses St. Gallen in everything. Its squad is much more powerful and experienced. The team gained two victories in the last three matches, one having beaten the leader in one of them. The hosts' morale will probably be affected by the defeat to eighth Thun and the loss of the first line in the table due to this defeat. Finally, the history of the head-to-head meetings is rather interesting. St. Gallen won in two of the last three matches. And both were played on the road. But taking Basel on visitors, it managed to win in only one of the last eight meetings and tied once. The other six matches ended in defeats. In this situation, it makes sense to risk betting on the victory of the grandee of Swiss football.
Prediction for the match: Basel to win
