✍️ Match Preview
Fixture Analysis
FC Sion welcome FC ST. Gallen to Stade de Tourbillon in Super League (matchday 31). Kick-off is Saturday 21 March 2026 at 19:30 UK time.
Recent Form
Across their last 10 games, FC Sion have gone 3W 5D 2L — a 1.40 PPG return. Last five: W D L D W. They are averaging 1.30 goals per game and conceding 1.00 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.
FC Sion's form when playing at home: 6W 4D 0L across their last 10 home games (2.20 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.70 goals scored and 0.70 conceded per game. 5 clean sheets from their last 10 home games (50%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at home. Their home PPG of 2.20 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.40 — FC Sion are significantly better at home than their overall form suggests.
Looking at their last 10 matches, FC ST. Gallen stand at 4W 6D 0L — 1.80 PPG. Last five: D W D W D. They are scoring at 1.90 per game and conceding 1.00. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in 80% of their matches — a high rate that makes Yes a well-evidenced angle from their form.
FC ST. Gallen away from home: 4W 5D 1L from their last 10 away games — 1.70 PPG on the road. They are averaging 2.00 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. Both teams have scored in 80% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.
The form comparison is too close to call — 1.40 PPG (FC Sion) versus 1.80 (FC ST. Gallen). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.
H2H
The H2H picture is flat: the 7 H2H matches we hold have produced 1 wins for FC Sion, 3 for FC ST. Gallen and 3 draws. Form and model data should carry more weight here.
These two sides have produced goals at a healthy rate, averaging 3.1 per game across the 7 H2H matches we hold. That scoring profile supports the Over 2.5 angle. The most recent of those, on 16 Dec 2025, ended FC Sion 1–3 FC ST. Gallen — a FC ST. Gallen win.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H signal is in the goals market — at 3.1 goals per game, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle from the head-to-head data.
In-Play Profile
FC Sion in-play tendencies (last 68 games, 34 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 71% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 74% of the time; of the 19 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 26%; of the 20 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 50%; BTTS occurs in 56% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 41% of games (home games).
FC ST. Gallen in-play tendencies (last 68 games, 34 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 74% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 81% of the time; of the 23 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 44%; of the 18 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 39%; BTTS occurs in 71% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 37%.
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — FC Sion 59% and FC ST. Gallen 66% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (FC Sion 46% | FC ST. Gallen 56%). There is an in-play dynamic worth noting: FC Sion surrender their half-time lead 26% of the time, while FC ST. Gallen have come from behind at the break to draw or win in 39% of cases — a combination that makes laying the hosts at HT a potential angle. Note also that FC ST. Gallen surrender HT leads in 44% of cases while FC Sion recover from half-time deficits to draw or win 50% of the time — a dynamic that could influence in-play positioning.
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects FC Sion 1.15 xG and FC ST. Gallen 1.16 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: FC Sion attack 0.834 / defence 0.651 | FC ST. Gallen attack 1.214 / defence 0.797. League average goals — home 1.734 / away 1.468. FC ST. Gallen bring a tight defence (rating 0.797, below 1 = concedes less than average) — this is pulling FC Sion's projected output down. FC ST. Gallen have an above-average attack rating of 1.214, which lifts their away xG to 1.16. FC Sion have a tight defence (rating 0.651), which is pulling FC ST. Gallen's projected output down. Data: built from FC Sion's last 63 games and FC ST. Gallen's last 63.
Result probabilities: FC Sion 32% | Draw 35% | FC ST. Gallen 33%. Fair-value odds: FC Sion 3.08 | Draw 2.89 | FC ST. Gallen 3.04. The draw (35%) is the Poisson-preferred outcome — neither side is more likely to win than to draw, making draw-inclusive markets the most model-aligned approach.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 41% | BTTS Yes probability 50% | Total xG 2.31. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 59% — total xG of 2.31 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS Yes at 50% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Our Verdict
The Poisson model's most likely outcome is the draw at 35% — neither side is more likely to win than to draw. Draw-inclusive markets are the most model-aligned approach. Home win at 32% and away win at 33% are close enough that backing either outright carries significant draw exposure.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.31 combined xG gives a 59% probability to Under 2.5 — low conviction — though the H2H data averaging 3.1 goals per game across 7 H2H matches points the other way.
Poisson assigns a 50% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: FC Sion 50% (last 10 home games) | FC ST. Gallen 80% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
FC Sion and FC ST. Gallen finished level at 1-1 at Stade de Tourbillon, Regular Season - 31, in the Super League. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting FC Sion 1.15 xG and FC ST. Gallen 1.16 xG, a combined 2.31. The scoreboard read 1-1 for 2 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of FC Sion attack 0.83 / defence 0.65 against FC ST. Gallen attack 1.21 / defence 0.80, drawn from 63/63 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it FC Sion 32% | Draw 35% | FC ST. Gallen 33%, with the draw its most likely call at 35%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 41%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 70% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 50% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 51% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (FC Sion 46%, FC ST. Gallen 56%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 62%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
FC Sion's trading profile (68 games, 34 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 59% of their matches — today it did.
FC ST. Gallen's trading profile (68 games, 34 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 66% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result

Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 3 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit). The numbers read this fixture well — the outcome largely followed the script the data laid out beforehand.
