Chiasso form and stats

There's been little loot from Chiasso's travels as they have only collected 1 point from 6 away games in the Challenge League. Chiasso, who have the fewest scored goals (8) in Challenge League, only have 0 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw. It's a growing despair in Chiasso as they have recorded three consecutive losses. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Chiasso have lost on their last two travels.

Chiasso have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 275 minutes ago. M. Sifneos was the goal scorer.

Chiasso failed to get anything from their last game, a Challenge League home match vs Aarau (placed 2nd) that ended with defeat 0-2. Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Winterthur's place.

Chiasso has another fixture away, a Challenge League game, against Grasshopper in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!

The attacking power of Chiasso when travelling is not overwhelming with 4 goals scored from 6 league matches away. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Chiasso's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 16 goals in 6 travels.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Chiasso - Wil 1-1. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Wil, two draws and four wins for Chiasso. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: six games.
