St. Gallen had an impressive performance last season, finishing fourth in the league and winning the Swiss Cup, which earned them their first-ever European competition qualification. Their coach, Masson, was even named the Swiss Super League's best coach of the season, thanks to his successful 3-4-3 formation. However, their pre - season form is a cause for concern. They suffered heavy defeats, losing 3 - 6 to Lyon and 0 - 3 to Norwich, conceding nine goals in total. This shows that their defense struggles under high - intensity pressure. In the latter part of the Swiss Super League, St. Gallen conceded nearly 1.8 goals per game. Now, they face Benfica, one of the most potent attacking teams in the Portuguese Primeira Liga. Adding to their woes, their key center - back, Fazli, is out long - term, and several rotation players have muscle injuries, leaving the defense short - handed.

Team Analysis : St Gallen will be looking for a repeat result of the 0-3 Swiss Cup success vs Stade Lausanne-Ouchy. Three or more goals per game were recorded in 5 of the past 6 fixtures where St Gallen have been involved. Opposition teams scored 7 of them in this period whereas St Gallen managed a tally of 11. Benfica Benfica come into this match following a 1-3 Primeira Liga win over Estoril in their last fixture. Benfica have been a threat going forward of late, having scored 15 times in their previous 6 matches. This doesn’t mask the fact that Benfica have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 5 of those same outings. That kind of trend might not be sustained into this match, though. Looking at these two teams, we feel that Benfica will probably be able to create a high number of chances and successful shots on target.
