In round 26 of the Swiss Super League, Winterthur will play St. Gallen at Stadion Schützenwiese. The two teams could not win their last league game and will hope for luck here. Which team gets things right? Below, I preview this game and offer betting opportunities. 

Winterthur

Winterthur's last league contest was against Servette and they ended on the losing end. In a game that ended 3-1, Luca Zuffi's strike was all this team could take, as they conceded twice in the second half. In the meantime, Winterthur's recent matches saw this team defeat Young Boys, ending 1-0. In other encounters, Winterthur lost to Zurich, Luzern and Yverdon in games that ended 3-2, 0-2, and 3-0. In their last home matches, Winterthur have two wins and lost three others. In 25 matches, Winterthur have 17 points, scoring 22 goals and conceding 54 as they sit at the bottom of the standings. 

St. Gallen

St. Gallen are coming off a 2-2 draw with Basel and they will hope to get a win this time. In that encounter, this team came from two goals behind to take a point, thanks to second-half strike goals from Christian Witzig and Willem Geubbels. In the meantime, St. Gallen have won two of their recent matches, coming against Lugano and Zurich. In other encounters, this team lost to Yverdon and Luzern in games that ended 1-0 and 2-0. Heading into this game, St. Gallen have 36 points from their first 25 matches, leaving them seated 7th.

Expert Betting Tips

St. Gallen, despite their inconsistent plays, are still the better team and this is a crucial game for them. While Winterthur have been failing to step up their game, their chances of making it out of relegation are low. Yet, a win could take St. Gallen to the Championship group, with a chance of playing in Europe next season. Also, both teams' vulnerability in defence is high and I do not trust either side to keep a clean sheet.

Our first option is a win for St. Gallen with odds at 1.91 on 1Xbet

Our second option is over 10 corners with odds at 2.00 on Bet365

Our last option is both teams to score and over 2.5 goals with odds at 1.83 on Betway
