Servette form and stats

3 victories, 3 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Servette, who have the most clean sheets (5) at home in Super League, have to build on here at Stade de Geneve in the Super League. Two home wins in a row for Servette bring valid hopes of a third.

A good away victory last time out for Servette, who won 5-0 against Zürich (placed 4th). A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Lugano.

As mentioned above, Servette "killed" Zürich in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. Jung-Bin Park was absolutely essential when Servette beat Zürich 5-0, scoring 3 goals.

The Servette fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 8 matches. Servette are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stade de Geneve in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 5 from 8 matches.

There's been little loot from Thun's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 8 away games in the Super League. Thun, who have the most conceded goals (38) in Super League, only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw. It's a growing despair in Thun as they have recorded three consecutive losses.

Thun failed to get anything from their last game, a Super League home match vs St. Gallen (placed 3rd) that ended with defeat 1-4. A 1-2 defeat away at Sion before that.

Thun are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 9 away goals from 8 games (in the league). Thun have conceded 17 goals in these games.
