Grasshoppers, Recent FormThe Grasshoppers squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 away defeat against Stade Lausanne-Ouchy, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. They came away from that fixture with 39% of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 5 on target. By comparison, Stade Lausanne-Ouchy managed 12 attempts on goal, with 4 on target.
Manager Bruno Berner will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 7 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 11 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 1 clean sheet in those games.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.
St. Gallen, Recent FormSt. Gallen have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 2-1 home win against Lausanne-Sport in their previous league match. Their share of possession in that meeting was 55%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target. Lausanne-Sport had 13 shots on goal with 3 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 8 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 6 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games away from home, but their search for a league win on the road extends even further having gone 10 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
On an individual basis, Fabian Schubert will be looking to cause Grasshoppers some problems having scored 2 goals in St. Gallen's last 6 away games in the league.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 2-2 draw.
From their past 7 away matches in the league against Grasshoppers, Espen have managed to find the net with at least 1 goal and will be aiming to keep that streak going. GCZ have struggled to keep St. Gallen at bay when these two teams have met at Stadion Letzigrund, during the last 3 times they have hosted St. Gallen in the league, they have conceded a total of 6 goals.
The last 2 league meetings between these teams have ended in a draw, but St. Gallen may still feel they have the upper hand, given they have not lost any of their last 3 league encounters with Grasshoppers.
Francis Momoh has scored in each of Grasshoppers' last 2 home games against St. Gallen.
With no real injury worries, Grasshoppers manager Bruno Berner will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
There is only really one injury concern for the St. Gallen manager Peter Zeidler ahead of this clash, with Albert Vallci (Achilles tendon) missing out, which gives Zeidler a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
