St. Gallen had mediocre last season, gaining 38 points in 36 matches with 41-66 goal difference, finishing only seventh in the top Swiss league. The team played six sparrings this pre-season, taking four wins and suffering two defeats. The visiting side also started the season with defeat, losing to Young Boys 0-2. As to the away record of the team, St. Gallen played nine matches of the road in 2016, taking only one win in the end of February.
The opponents are of about the same level as none of the opponents have advantage in their head-to-head records. However, with taking into consideration results of the last season and home field advantage of Sion, we can expect them to take home win against St. Gallen, who clearly struggle on the road.
Prediction for the match: Sion to win.
