The Super League season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Luzern and Thun promises to be an interesting one.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Luzern and Thun.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Thun have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 17-6-14 (win-draw-loss) from 37 matches.
