Sheriff 1-3 St. Gallen result, stats and report

Sion came to St. Gallen and did what good sides do. They competed harder, created more, and punished a home team that had no answer for the basics.

St. Gallen had the chances, the shots, and the desire to win this one. Nordsjælland had the composure to take it from them, and that is the difference between the two sides right now.

Thun came from behind three times to win 4-3 at St. Gallen, with Lukas Daschner's stoppage-time finish completing a remarkable away victory that defied every reasonable expectation.

Grasshopper claimed a deserved 2-0 home win over St. Gallen, with Amir Abrashi and substitute Young-joon Lee doing the damage as the hosts kept their first clean sheet in five Swiss Super League matches.

Nordsjælland's early goal and disciplined defensive structure proved enough to see off a busy but wasteful St. Gallen side, continuing an impressive home record that has now yielded 12 goals and zero conceded across three matches this season.

St. Gallen welcome a Lausanne Sport side that has failed to win any of their last five Swiss Super League matches to the Kybunpark on Sunday. The form book points firmly in one direction.

Basel sit third in the Swiss Super League table but cannot keep a clean sheet at home to save themselves, while St. Gallen arrive in Basel carrying eight first-team absences and a solitary away game under their belts this season.

St. Gallen carry a significant injury burden into Saturday's home fixture against a Sion side that has scored freely on the road this season. The structural gap between these two squads makes this one of the more interesting tactical puzzles of the Swiss Super League weekend.
