Sion vs Luzern Prediction & Betting tips
On the last day of the game, the football players from the Valais got off lightly. Although FC Sion lost the away game at FC Basel, the team around coach Paolo Tramezzani remained on the saving bank. In order to continue to avoid the red zone of the Super League, the form crisis has to be overcome. Sion is therefore aiming for the first victory under Tramezzani.
On the 27th matchday of the Super League, the red and whites from the Valais meet the guests from Lucerne. As can be seen from the odds comparison on a betting basis, Sion vs. Lucerne is not a clear favorite according to quotas. However, a forecast on the home side tends not to be wrong. After all, there have been good signs in the last few games.
Since November 2019, FC Sion has not won a single game in the Super League. In the meantime, the red-whites from Valais have been without a win for ten competitive matches in a row. At least the recent home record of FC Sion is encouraging. At the Stade de Tourbillon, Sion has only lost twice in their last six home games.
Lucerne, on the other hand, continued the strong series from before the season break at the restart of the Super League and won the match against FC Basel. Since then, however, the Lucerne team has remained victorious. In addition to the analysis below on the match between Sion vs. Lucerne further betting tips and analyzes around Swiss football can be found in the betting base section Super League Tips.
Sion:
With FC St. Gallen, Servette Geneva and FC Basel, the red and whites from Sion didn’t have the easiest game schedule. It is all the more important to build on the good beginnings from the last games and to record another victory for the first time since November 2019.
For the current trainer Paolo Tramezzani it is currently the second term as coach of FC Sion. The Italian had already worked for the red-whites from Valais in 2017, but had to say goodbye in the classic Sion manner after three months. This time Paolo Tramezzani acts as an interim solution and should initially only implement the relegation.
The Italian is aiming for his first victory in the home game against FC Luzern. Most recently there was an away bust at FC Basel for the red-whites. Although FC Sion was able to hold up against FCB’s strong offensive over a long distance, there were two goals four minutes before the end of regular time to make it 0-2.
Defensive recently more stable
Although five goals have been conceded in the last three games, the defensive was far more stable than before the three-month break. After all, the Red and Whites played against three of the four best offensives in the Super League.
Sion currently only has two points between relegation and relegation points. In order to avoid the red zone, three points have to be booked on Thursday evening. Otherwise, the Tramezzani team will again be dependent on rifle assistance.
Luzern:
With a home win over FC Basel, Lucerne successfully resumed play in the Swiss Super League. The blue-whites continued the strong series before the season break and remained unbeaten for the seventh time in a row. In the last English week there was another defeat for FC Luzern for the first time since December 2019.
With the interim upward trend, Lucerne made up some places in the Super League table. The blue-whites developed from a potential relegation candidate to the EL aspirant. The gap to fourth place in the table is only six points. Since Servette FC played a draw in the Tuesday game, Lucerne can move up to three points with a win.
In the 13 away games of the current season, FC Luzern achieved a record of 4-2-7. Considering that the blue-whites only scored eleven goals, this is a considerable FCL statistic. The last away game at the table neighbor from Lugano lost Lucerne 0: 2. If the second away defeat follows in a row, Sion vs. Lucerne attractive odds can be tapped.
FC Luzern’s offensive was largely ineffective this season. The blue-whites scored just 29 goals, making them the fourth weakest offensive in the Super League. The striker Fracnesco Margiotta, who led the internal goalscorer list with eleven goals and ten assists, made a major contribution to this goal.
On the last matchday, the 26-year-old Italian brought his team a point win over Servette Geneva. The Lucerne caught up a 0-2 deficit and ultimately played a 2-2 draw. Margiotta achieved a double pack. It is quite possible that FCL coach Fabio Celestini will tackle the match against FC Sion with the same starting eleven.
