Yverdon Sport form and stats

Yverdon Sport have collected 5 points from their Challenge League home games so far after 1-2-1.

In their previous game, the manager U. Forte led his Yverdon to a defeat in the Challenge League match away at Winterthur. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stade Municipal.

Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Vaduz.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Yverdon have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found two games) they have won one time, drawn zero and lost one.

The Yverdon fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 5 in 4 matches. 5 goals have been conceded.

Wil form and stats

The visitors are W1-D0-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Challenge League.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Challenge League home defeat versus Stade Lausanne-Ouchy with 2-3 on the scoreboard. Late heartbreak for Wil in the Stade Lausanne-Ouchy match, as the deciding 2-3 goal came deep into overtime.

Prior to that match, a home win 2-0 against FC Schaffhausen.

Wil are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is four wins, five draws and seven defeats. From a total of 16 matches.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Wil as they have only managed to score 3 times from 4 away games in the league. The Wil manager A. Frei has some worries about the defense as 8 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Wil - Yverdon Sport 3-0 was the output when these two sides previously did battle, also in this season. Statistics for the previous ten meetings between these two sides are: three wins for Yverdon, two draws and five wins for Wil. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: five games.
