Our prediction for this Europa Conference League match:
Out-of-sorts Heidenheim will try to put an end to their seven-game losing run in all competitions when they take on St. Gallen in the Conference League round 6. Heidenheim are low on confidence ahead of Thursday’s encounter, but this game could be the turning point for Frank Schmidt’s troops. Both Lennard Maloney and Julian Niehues are sidelined with injuries, while fit-again forward Mikkel Kaufmann should be recalled to the starting XI.
St. Gallen, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-0 win over Zurich. When the two teams met in a friendly four years ago, Heidenheim recorded a thrilling 6-2 win over St. Gallen and yet another high-scoring affair is on the horizon. Cameroon international Noah Yannick is back from the domestic ban, while the likes of Geubbels, Gortler, Karlen, Milosevic, Stevanovic, Nuhu, and Konietzke have been struggling with injuries for the away team.
