Prediction published on 29/08/2024, 04:09  by Nella Wagah in Conference League Predictions

Trabzonspor will be at home at the Papara Park this Thursday, welcoming St Gallen for a Conference League play-off round match. This will be the return leg of the tie, with the scores standing at 0-0 on aggregate. Read on for our prediction.

Either team can still win this match, and the tie. Trabzonspor, playing at home, would be expected to stand out. Having been axed from the Europa League, the hosts will hope to avoid a loss that would completely dump them out of Europe.

They suffered a 3-0 aggregate loss to Rapid Vienna, falling both home and away. After their draw with St Gallen in Switzerland, the Turkish side has gone winless in four matches. It isn’t just that, they also failed to score in those four matches.

Meanwhile, all of their six matches this season produced under 2.5 goals.

St. Gallen have had a more solid run and will come into this game confident of upsetting their hosts. Their season started with defeat at Winterthur but they recovered from that well.

At 10 matches into the season, they’ve only lost one more – their 3-2 fall at Slask Wroclaw. St. Gallen also rose from that and are unbeaten in their last two matches, keeping clean sheets in both games.

Their draw with Trabzonspor marked their sixth clean sheet in the last eight matches. St. Gallen have seven wins in their last 10 matches, and only failed to score in two of them.

To progress to the next stage of the Conference League, however, they have to improve on their last two results in the competition.
