Yverdon Sport contest Thun for fame and sporting success.

This arena has grass, which is not Thun's normal surface at their own football stadium. When playing on grass Thun have performed like this: Played 31 matches taking 15 wins, 7 draws and 9 defeats with the goal stats 59-50 (scored/conceded).

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Yverdon Sport form and stats

Yverdon Sport have only played one Challenge League game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 7 wins, 7 draws and 4 defeats from 18 matches.

The Yverdon Sport manager Schallibaum and his crew return home after a 3-3 draw away versus Vaduz (placed 8th). A disappointing finish for Yverdon in their match versus Vaduz as their 3-1 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 3-3 full time score.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Stade Lausanne-Ouchy in a game that was won 2-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Yverdon Sport perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Yverdon Sport as a small favourite), we find 4 games. Yverdon Sport has won 4 of these, drawn 0 and lost 0.

Yverdon Sport has scored 2 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.
