REF’s picks

Backing FC St. Gallen -1 offers solid value at 1.877 given their strong home profile and Lausanne's heavy list of key absentees. St. Gallen's attacking unit at Kybunpark should dictate terms, though defensive lapses could keep the visitors interested.

1. 1St. Gallen holds a distinct advantage playing at home against a heavily depleted Lausanne squad.
2. 2Lausanne missing several starters through suspensions and injuries severely limits their defensive depth.
3. 3St. Gallen can sometimes struggle to keep clean sheets when pressing high, leaving room for potential counter-attacks.
