Wil form and stats

Let's have a look at how Wil performed last season in the Challenge League: They landed a 7th position in the league table after playing out 10 victories, 9 draws and 17 defeats. In total they scored 43 and conceded 52 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 4 and lost 12 with 15/33 goals scored/conceded.

Home advantage was not enough for Wil in their previous game, as they lost their Challenge League-match, hosting Vaduz, 2-3. A huge disappointment for Wil in their last match (vs Vaduz). Leading 2-0 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all was lost in a 2-3 defeat. Late heartbreak for Wil in the Vaduz match, as the deciding 2-3 goal came deep into overtime.

A loss against Thun was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: three - two - five (Winterthur wins - draws - Wil wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.
