This match features two teams living in the basement of the Challenge League, FC Schaffhausen holding 9th place and Aarau lying 8th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for FC Schaffhausen and Aarau.
2-1-0 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Aarau when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those three matches are 5-2 (scored/conceded).
FC Schaffhausen form and stats
FC Schaffhausen have played 17 Challenge League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-9-5 (wins-draws-losses). The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in ten attempts. Two draws in a row at home now for Schaffhausen.
No payout for Schaffhausen in their previous match, an away game at Vaduz that ended in defeat 1-3. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 2-2 versus Stade Lausanne-Ouchy.
FC Schaffhausen has scored 17 league goals at home this season, in 17 matches. Schaffhausen have conceded 24 in these home matches.
Aarau form and stats
There's been little loot from Aarau's travels as they have only collected 16 points from 17 away games in the Challenge League. Aarau, who have the most conceded goals (78) in Challenge League, only have 4 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 4 draws.
There were no winners in Aarau's previous match, a Challenge League home game that ended 2-2 vs Grasshopper (placed 3rd). A 1-3 defeat away at Wil before that.
It looked so good for Aarau vs Grasshopper, but the job was not completed and victory was lost as a 2-0 lead was turned into a 2-2 draw.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Aarau have scored 21 goals in 17 league games away. The Aarau manager S. Keller has some worries about the defense as 40 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Aarau - Schaffhausen 1-2. As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's three Schaffhausen victories, one draw and six Aarau wins.
