Luzern form and stats

Luzern, who have the most conceded goals (49) in Super League, have collected 19 points from their Super League home games so far after 4-7-3.

In the game before, an away victory in the Swiss Cup match versus Lugano (after extra-time) with a 2-1 scoreline.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Luzern have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found three matches with the results: Won zero, drawn one and lost two.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Zurich are coming to town in four days.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (28 in 14 games), Luzern's attacking play is working. 20 goals have been conceded.

Goalkeeper Mory Diaw was absolutely vital in the Lausanne Sport victory against Vaduz, making six saves.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Lausanne Sport in our archives, and the results are: zero wins for Lausanne, three draws and four defeats.

A new game in only three days for Lausanne, the Super League home match versus Basel. Busy days.
