Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Kriens & Servette face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Swiss Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
The visiting Servette played their last game only three days ago, a Super League match. That game was also an away game, at Zurich. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Kriens form and stats
Last season their Swiss Cup adventure ended in the 16th finals.The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Challenge League this season. Kriens have only managed 3 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses from their games here at Stadion Kleinfeld.
Preceding that game was the home draw versus Stade Lausanne-Ouchy that ended 1-1.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Kriens as they have a new game in only three days, a Challenge League match thankfully also at home. FC Schaffhausen are visiting.
The Kriens fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 14 matches. On the other hand, Kriens have conceded 19 goals.
Servette form and stats
Servette's mission in Swiss Cup last season failed in the 16th finals.As the visiting team in Super League matches, Servette have produced an overall stat of 6-1-7 so far. Having won their last three away games Servette has no reason to fear anyone.
Two travels in a row for Servette, whose manager A. Geiger could celebrate last time after the Super League win against Zurich.
World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager A. Geiger when Kastriot Imeri scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 67th minute.
The schedule is very tough for Servette now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Super League game at Basel is waiting in only four days.
The attacking power of Servette when travelling is not overwhelming with 13 goals scored from 14 league matches away. Servette have conceded 18 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
Last ten meetings between the teams: Kriens won four, Servette won four and two draws. seven games with over 2,5 goals, three matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
