Wil form and stats

When playing at home in the Challenge League, Wil have managed 3 wins, 1 draw and suffered 2 defeats from 6 games.

Wil travelled for their previous game, a trip to FC Schaffhausen that ended 3-3. Trouble was brewing at the score 1-3 against FC Schaffhausen last time out, but a goal from V. Fazliu completed a comeback to a draw result for Wil. 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? V. Fazliu was able to secure the draw 3-3 in the game against FC Schaffhausen after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?

Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Neuchatel Xamax.

Wil can score goals in their home matches. After 6 league matches they have found the net 13 times. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Wil defense is not exactly impregnable. 9 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
