Aarau vs Grasshoppers Prediction & Betting tips
No reason for re-promotion: the record champion from Switzerland has his back to the wall two game days before the end of the season in the Challenge League. In order to at least move into the relegation, the Grasshoppers need support on the last two matchdays and also have to deliver themselves. Finally, the GCZ left important points in the promotion race.
The third away game in a row is scheduled for the Grasshoppers in Aarau on Thursday evening. The GCZ has not won three times in a row abroad. If the negative series also stops at the league’s eighth of the table, there is a risk of an early promotion knockout.
In the match between Aarau and the Grasshoppers, the best bookmakers see the guests as favorites according to the odds. After all, the GCZ is struggling to face an offensive opponent.
Goals should almost be guaranteed when the two clubs meet. Therefore, we tend to think that the Challenge League Thursday game between Aarau and the Grasshoppers is a good way to predict a goal-scoring match.
Aarau:
The eagles from Aarau can end the season. As the table eight, there is no risk of relegation and there are no ambitions for advancement for the black, white and red. In the last six games, FC Aarau has recently been without a win, but still delivered some offensive spectacles.
The attack department of the black, white and red is one of the best offensives in the Challenge League. But there were sometimes catastrophic performances from the defensive. Aarau have conceded 76 goals in 34 season games, making them the worst team in the league.
A few weeks ago, the aspiring aspirant from Vaduz felt that FC Aarau should not be underestimated. Aarau scored a well-deserved point in a balanced match, giving Vaduz a decent damper in the promotion race.
On the last matchday, Aarau suffered an away defeat at FC Wil, the youngest opponent of the Grasshoppers. As in the previous games, the Aarau defensive was demonstrated by the opposing attack department. If nothing changes in the game against the GCZ, it will only be a matter of time before the opponent wets the first time.
Grasshoppers:
“Do-or-die” for the Grasshoppers from Zurich. After important points in the promotion race were left behind on the previous match day, the next point loss of the GCZ may threaten the promotion knockout. To take second place in the Challenge League two games before the end of the season, the record champion from Zurich needs rifle support.
It will be the third away game in a row for the Grasshoppers on Thursday evening. According to the GCZ’s recent away record, the away game at FC Aarau is not really convenient for coach Zoltan Kadar’s protégés. After all, there has been only one win for the Grasshoppers in the last five away games.
Last Monday the Kadar team played the catch-up game against FC Wil and had the chance to take second place in the Challenge League again on their own. After a 0: 2 deficit was leveled in the meantime, the Grasshoppers buckled in the final phase and conceded the goal to the 2: 3 final result.
It was the third competitive game in a row in which the GCZ conceded three or more goals. This is not really common for the otherwise strong defense of the record champions. On Thursday evening, the Grasshoppers can no longer afford to lose points in the current table constellation.
In Aarau Kadar will be missing a total of seven players. The Grasshoppers will be particularly weak in the full-back positions. With Arigoni, Cabral, Goelzer and Wittwer, the entire defense team is missing. If the record champion from Zurich prevails on Thursday evening, Aarau vs. Grasshoppers paid passable odds for tip 2.
