Trabzonspor vs St. Gallen Prediction & Betting Tips (29 August)

The final qualifying phase for access to the Conference League groups will take place this week and we will see the Turkish team of Trabzonspor host the Swiss team of Saint Gall. In the first leg, these two teams neutralized each other in a goalless draw 0-0, so the return match could offer us a little more spectacle, hopefully. Trabzonspor started their season rather poorly after a short summer preparation with only 2 friendly matches played. Indeed, they were able to win their first matches during the qualifying phase in the Europa League against Ruzomberok but were unfortunately demoted to the Conference League after their failure against Rapid Vienna 3-0 in the two matches. In the league, they started with a draw against Sivasspor, in a trip which remained goalless also 0-0.

For its part, Saint Gall has a better record with 7 victories in 10 matches, all competitions combined. They are in 3rd place in the Super League, the Swiss championship, and qualified very well for the Swiss Cup thanks to a victory against the small club AC Malcantone. On paper, Saint Gall could have the weapons to qualify, but at home Trabzonspor will have the support of their public.

St. Gallen may not have secured as many points as they might have wanted on their top-flight travels so far, but they have certainly delivered plenty of entertainment, with both teams on target in four of their five trips. What’s more, five of their most recent seven Conference League meetings with Trabzonspor have served up goals at both ends.
