Zürich form and stats

Zürich have only played one Super League game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 5 wins, 8 draws and 5 defeats from 18 matches.

The Zürich coach Henriksen and his team return home after a 2-2 draw away versus Servette (placed 2nd). A disappointing finish for Zürich in their match versus Servette as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 2-2 full time score. Rohner, who usually features in attack, was the champion performer for the team in that game, earning a rating of 7.62 (out of 10). Rohner scored one goal and hit two key passes.

Before that, Zürich had a home game versus Yverdon Sport which ended with a victory 2-0.

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 Zürich have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 12 matches with the results: Won 5, drawn 3 and lost 4.

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

Lugano form and stats

A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the Super League, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 6 wins, 7 draws and 5 defeats from 18 matches.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Lugano goalkeeper Amir Saipi is eager to challenge this, with his 181 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

Celar scored in Lugano's previous match, the home game against St. Gallen that ended 1-0. Goalkeeper Saipi got the top player rating of the team with 8.25/10. Saipi topped it up with a clean sheet.

Prior to that result Lugano won their away game at Stade Lausanne-Ouchy. The scoreline was 3-0.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 10 similar matches played by Lugano in our archives, and the results are: 5 wins for Lugano, 3 draws and 2 defeats.
