Grasshopper form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Grasshopper so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-3 (win-draw-lose).

Grasshopper's previous game was their home loss versus Luzern (1-3). It is probably bad news for Grasshopper that their goalie Hammel managed six saves in the Luzern fixture, but still couldn't prevent a defeat.

Preceding that game was the away victory against Zurich with the score of 4-1.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Grasshopper playing away, we found 6 games. Results were 1 away win, 4 draws and 1 home win.

Goal-happy betting people should observe that 8 of this side's 10 most recent league fixtures have ended with at least three goals.

Grasshopper have scored 10 goals on their travels this season, from 7 away games in the league.
