Pre-match most people would expect a notable gulf in performance between these sides based on the league table so far, with Basel leading Luzern by 14 points.
- Basel have the most scored goals (22) in Super League
- Luzern have the most conceded goals in the first half (13) in Super League
Both squads have had plentiful rest since their last game. Let's aim for an active match!
Basel form and stats
When playing at home in the Super League, Basel have managed 3 wins, 1 draw and suffered 0 defeats from 4 games.
A nice win for Basel last time playing, versus Zürich. That was also a home game and the match ended 3-1 with Arthur Cabral, Liam Millar and Dan Ndoye scoring for the victors. Midfield player Dan Ndoye got a match rating of 8.14 in that game, the max score being 10. Ndoye scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 3 of 4 times.
In the preceding match a 2-0 victory visiting St. Gallen.Basel always seem capable of creating a buzz here at St. Jakob-Park with 15 goals in 4 league games. 4 goals have been conceded.
Luzern form and stats
Still no away game victory in the Super League for Luzern with 2 draws and 1 loss from their first 3 attempts.
Luzern failed to get anything from their last game, a Super League home match vs Lugano (placed 5th) that ended with defeat 2-3. Midfielder Christian Gentner was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.62. Gentner had 87 successful passes (of 106 total).
Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Sion.Luzern are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 4 away goals from 3 games (in the league). The Luzern manager F. Celestini has some worries about the defense as 7 goals have been conceded in these travels.
