Bavois form and stats

Bavois have collected 10 points from their 1.Liga Promotion home games so far after 3-1-2.

No payout for Bavois in their previous match, an away game at Luzern II that ended in defeat 3-4. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Before that, Bavois had a home game versus Breitenrain which ended with a victory 4-2.

This is expected to be a close game, with Bavois perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Bavois as a small favourite), we find 7 games. Bavois has won 2 of these, drawn 2 and lost 3.

Observe: 10 of the latest 11 league games from these players have seen goals scored by both teams.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Bavois as they are travelling to their away game against Young Boys II in the 1.Liga Promotion. That match is four days after this one.

Goals are plentiful at Stade des Peupliers in the league this season as Bavois has scored 16 goals here in 6 home games. Bavois have conceded 11 from these games.

Zürich II form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their 1.Liga Promotion travels is 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat. It's a growing despair in Zürich as they have recorded three consecutive losses.

Zürich II have a lot to to set right after their unexpected defeat (0-1) to Bulle in their previous game, played in front of their own supporters.

Prior to that match, the Zürich II manager faced defeat when travelling to Paradiso and losing 1-2.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Zürich playing away and similar expectations, we found 6 relevant matches. Results were 4 Zürich II wins, 0 draws and 2 defeats.

Take note that 8 of this team's 10 latest league games have ended with three or more goals.

After this away game Zürich II return home for a 1.Liga Promotion game against Cham. That game is only three sleeps after this.

As opposed to that, Zürich II have seen the ball go into their own net 7 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

Bavois-Zürich II H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Bavois four wins, Zürich II five wins, one draw. seven of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
