This match features two teams living in the basement of the Challenge League, Aarau holding 8th place and Chiasso lying 10th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
It's no vacation for neither Aarau nor Chiasso as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
For Chiasso it's their last days at this level as relegation is a fact.
Aarau form and stats
When playing at home in the Challenge League, Aarau, who have the most conceded goals (71) in Challenge League, have managed 5 wins, 5 draws and suffered 6 defeats from 16 games. Aarau are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Stadion Brügglifeld, having lost their two previous games here.
The Aarau crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-3 to Stade Lausanne-Ouchy here at Stadion Brügglifeld in a Challenge League match. 1-1 away at Vaduz before that.
Aarau are traveling soon after this match as the Challenge League match at Wil awaits in three days.
Goals decide football matches and Aarau are scoring many of them at home; 36 on target from 16 league matches. Aarau have conceded 34 goals in these home games, a significant number.
Chiasso form and stats
Chiasso have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Challenge League, after 1-2-13 (16 played). Bitter travels for Chiasso as they have lost five games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Vaduz match. It's looking increasingly bleak for Chiasso who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. FC Schaffhausen was the last time a defeat was avoided.
Home advantage was not enough for Chiasso in their previous game, as they lost their Challenge League-match, hosting Winterthur, 0-1. A 1-2 defeat away at Grasshopper before that.
After this away game Chiasso return home for a Challenge League game against Vaduz. That game is only four sleeps after this.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Chiasso have scored 19 goals in 16 league games away. For Chiasso, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Chiasso - Aarau 1-3. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: seven - one - two (Aarau wins - draws - Chiasso wins). As for goals, seven matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three had two or less.Top Goalscorers
