Only a few games have been played in the Challenge League so far, with FC Schaffhausen placed 3rd and Aarau sitting in the 9th 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.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Aarau have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 3-1-0 (win-draw-loss) from four matches.
