Form Guide — Last 5
FC Sion
Sion's recent five results (WLWWW) include a 3‑2 home win over Vaduz and a 3‑0 away victory at St. Gallen, showing they can score three goals against varied opposition. Their only loss was a narrow 1‑2 defeat at home to Lugano, indicating that even when they lose, they still find the net, which supports a high‑scoring outlook for this fixture.
FC Zurich
Zurich's last five games (LWLDW) feature a 3‑2 away win at Lausanne and a 2‑1 home win over Vaduz, both showing they can score multiple goals. The 2‑4 home loss to Young Boys and the 2‑2 away draw with Grasshoppers illustrate defensive frailties, especially away, which aligns with the expectation of a goal‑rich match.
