It's early days in the Super League and the teams are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.

It's no vacation for neither Servette nor Luzern as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Servette form and stats

Only two home games for Servette so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 1 draw and 0 defeat.

Servette's last game was hosting Luzern and winning 1-0. The points were shared before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Sion.

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 Servette have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found four games) they have won 3 times, drawn 1 and lost 0.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Servette at home. 1 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Luzern form and stats

Things could have gone better for Luzern in their away games, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Luzern, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-1 versus Servette. Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at KÍ.

Luzern are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats. From a total of nine matches.

2 goals so far away for Luzern, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 2 matches.

Head 2 Head
