With the nervous opening game out of the way it’s time for the second Challenge League game of the season. Thun look forward to welcoming Yverdon Sport in front of their home support.

Last season, Thun's league statistics were 19 wins, 7 draws and 10 losses, resulting in a 2nd position in the Challenge League. Over these 36 matches they scored 57 goals and conceded 46. Playing at home last season Thun managed 10-3-5 (win-draw-lost) with 26 goals and 16 conceded.

A strong away win for Thun against Kriens the last match, as Daniel Correia, A. Gerndt and G. Karlen were on target.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Thun, as the Challenge League home game vs Aarau is only three days away.

Yverdon Sport form and stats

Let's have a look at how Yverdon Sport performed last season in the 1.Liga Promotion: They landed a 1st position in the league table after playing out 11 victories, 3 draws and 1 defeat. In total they scored 47 and conceded 13 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 4 - drew 2 and lost 1 with 18/7 goals scored/conceded.

The manager J. Aeby was unhappy after their last game, a Challenge League match played at their home ground Stade Municipal. Yverdon Sport suffered a 1-3 loss to Stade Lausanne-Ouchy (placed 1st).

Preceding that match was the 3-3 draw at home vs Stade Nyonnais.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Yverdon Sport manager J. Aeby as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Wil.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last eight meetings: four - one - three (Thun wins - draws - Yverdon Sport wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three had two or less.
