The Letzigrund stadium is set to host the highly anticipated round 19 match between Zurich and Basel in the Swiss Super League. In their previous encounter, both teams played to a 2-2 draw, and they will be looking for a more favorable outcome in this upcoming clash. Let's delve into a comprehensive match preview and explore available betting options.
Zurich
Zürich is eager for a better outcome in their upcoming match, having suffered a 1-0 defeat in the Super League against St Gallen in their last game. During that match, Zürich maintained 50% possession and attempted 11 shots at goal, with 7 on target. St. Gallen, on the other hand, had 15 shots at goal, with 6 on target. The only goal of the game was scored by Chadrac Akolo in the 39th minute.
Concerns have arisen for Zürich as they have struggled to maintain a solid defense for the full 90 minutes in recent games. In their last 6 matches, Zürich conceded goals in 5 of them, letting in a total of 7 goals during that period. Examining their recent records, Zürich is unbeaten against Basel in their last 4 league games and has remained undefeated in their last 2 league matches at home.
Basel
Basel enters this upcoming match with confidence, having secured a 1-0 victory against FC Luzern in their recent Super League fixture. In that game, Basel maintained 46% possession and attempted 10 shots on goal, with 2 hitting the target. Jonathan Dubasin (66') was the scorer for Basel, while Luzern had 21 attempts on goal, with 4 on target.
In their six most recent matches, Fabio Celestini's Basel managed to convert their goal-scoring efforts into 8 goals, resulting in an average of 1.33 goals scored per game. Assessing their historical records, Basel has not suffered a defeat against Zürich in their last 2 away league matches and remains undefeated in their previous 3 away league matches overall.
Expert Betting Tips
Despite a slow start to the season, Basel is showing signs of improvement; however, they are still considered heavy underdogs in this match. On the flip side, Zurich's performance has dipped, and although they are expected to perform at their best, complete trust is difficult. Given the weak defensive play from both sides, the expectation is for goals from both teams. However, considering Zurich's home advantage, the prediction is for them to secure a victory.
