FC Zürich - FC Lugano

*7th Match for the Swiss Super League 

ZURICH

This year's European adventure for Zurich seems to have dissociated it from the league so far. Last year's champions have yet to find a rhythm and are fatefully in 10th and last place in the Swiss Super League standings.

The big problem of this year's team is definitely the goal since the sales of the top players of last year's team at the moment seem irreplaceable.

The oxymoron with this year's Zurich is that it managed to qualify for the Europa League groups, with two wins against Hearts. But in the very next game, they lost 2-4 at home to Basel.

LUGGANO

Three straight home defeats for Lugano so far in the league with the latest defeat coming in a 2-3 defeat at St Gallen. And Lugano did not start the league well and with 2 wins and 4 losses they are in 7th place in the standings with 6 points after 6 matches. 

He manages to score with ease so far but on the other hand he also concedes easy goals and this is reflected in his goal ratio with 12 goals for and 11 against in these first games.

ASSESSMENT 

Another difficult game for last year's champions since they still can't find a rhythm in the league. The game under normal conditions is within their means to be able to get the three points but for now they are not convincing. Lugano, while playing good football at times, cannot make a mark in its defensive function, leaving valuable points.

If Zurich appears serious like in the European competitions, it will be able to get the three points that will remove it from the last place in the standings. On the other hand, the visitors are capable of scoring and making it difficult for last year's champions.

Choice in the match the 1X & Over 1.5 at a yield of 1.70 from STOIXIMAN.
