Luzern form and stats

With 2 Super League wins, 2 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Luzern are certainly not brimming with confidence.

Preceding that match was a defeat to Zürich (0-2).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Grasshopper form and stats

As the visiting team in Super League matches, Grasshopper have produced an overall stat of 3-4-5 so far. Recent form does not give Grasshopper much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Luzern will be a tough nut to crack.

This game can not go any worse than the previous one, the home loss versus Servette with 2-4 on the scoreboard. Lenjani got a match rating of 7.21 in that game, top player of the team. Lenjani served one assist and hit three key passes.

Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Lugano.

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

The visiting Grasshopper have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 17 goals from 12 games.
