With their 23 point advantage in the league table, Kriens fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Chiasso.
The hosts Kriens saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Challenge League. That game was an away game at Vaduz, so at least Kriens are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
Kriens form and stats
Kriens have played 13 Challenge League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 7-3-3 (wins-draws-losses).
Kriens are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 2-4 away versus Vaduz. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Stade Lausanne-Ouchy that ended 2-2.
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?
The manager B. Berner will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Wil in only three days.

Chiasso form and stats
There's been little loot from Chiasso's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 13 away games in the Challenge League. Chiasso, who have the most conceded goals (29) away in Challenge League, only have 1 win to counter their 10 defeats and 2 draws. It's a growing despair in Chiasso as they have recorded three consecutive losses. Chiasso has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
Chiasso's previous game was their home loss versus Aarau (1-3). Prior to that match, the Chiasso manager A. Lupi faced defeat when travelling to FC Schaffhausen and losing 1-2.
A new game in only three days for Chiasso, the Challenge League home match versus FC Schaffhausen. Busy days.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Chiasso have scored 16 goals in 13 league games away. The Chiasso manager A. Lupi has some worries about the defense as 29 goals have been conceded in these travels.
