St. Gallen had an impressive performance in the Swiss Super League last season. They not only secured the second - place finish in the league but also won the Swiss Cup, tasting championship glory again after 26 years. However, in European competitions, they are relatively inexperienced. Their last appearance in the Europa League group stage dates back to 2013, and their performance in the 2024 UEFA Europa Conference League was not outstanding. During the pre - season friendlies, their form fluctuated significantly. They had smooth sailing in the first three games, but in the last two, they faced tough opponents and showed their weakness, losing 3 - 6 to Lyon and then 0 - 3 to Norwich. When using the 3 - 5 - 2 formation, their defense struggled to withstand high - intensity pressing. To make matters worse, the injury list is quite long. Midfielder Nziri, forward Effiong, and goalkeeper Dummrath are among those injured. On a positive note, their home ground is a tough place for opponent
