St. Gallen and Basel will battle for three points in a Swiss Super League matchday 25 clash on Saturday (February 22nd). The game will be played at Kybunpark.
The home side are coming into the game on the back of a 1-0 defeat away to Yverdon. They were reduced to 10 men when Jozo Stanic was sent off in the 59th minute and Antonio Marchesano made them pay in the first minute of injury time by scoring the match-winner.
Basel, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw at home to Lausanne. They went ahead through Kevin's third-minute strike while Marwin Hitz' own goal midway through the second half ensured the two sides canceled each other out.

St. Gallen vs Basel Prediction
St. Gallen have won their last two home games after having not won any of the preceding eight (six draws). Furthermore, four of their last five games in front of their fans have produced at least four goals.
Basel fell to second spot in the table behind Lugano folowing their draw last weekend. They are one point behind the Bianconeri and a win here would see them keep up pace or potentially climb back to the summit of the standings. Fabio Celestini's side have lost just one of their last six away games. However, that defeat came in their most recent away game.
We are backing the visitors to claim a narrow victory with goals at both ends.
