Basel, Recent FormA point gained from their 1-1 draw against St. Gallen in their previous encounter will not be considered a bad outcome for Basel. They came away from that fixture with 41% of the possession and clocked up 12 attempts on goal with 5 on target. By comparison, St. Gallen managed 32 attempts on goal, with 10 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 7 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 6 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have been misfiring up front at home recently, having been unable to produce a goal in 3 of their last 6 matches. It's clear that with only 2 clean sheets from the last 6 matches at home, Alex Frei will have some concerns regarding his squad's defensive abilities of late.
They have put together a nice run of home form recently, managing to go undefeated in 5 matches out of their last 6 at St. Jakob-Park and recording 3 wins in that same period. Their home form in the early part of the season has produced an unusually high number of draws, with 4 draws in 8 home league games.
Bradley Fink will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Basel.
Luzern, Recent FormLuzern manager Mario Frick will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against Zürich. They achieved 46% possession in that match and had 13 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against Zürich's tally of 17 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 9, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 10 goals and some valuable points in the process. On their travels, they have made a habit of scoring goals, having found the net in 4 of their last 6 outings away from home. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 10 games.
This has been a difficult period for the team in terms of away form, with 3 defeats and just 2 victories in their last 6 matches away from home.
Goalscorer Max Meyer will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Luzern.
It was not a positive ending for Luzern last time they met Basel in the league, with the game ending in a 0-2 defeat.
Basel have managed to keep a clean sheet against Die Leuchten in each of their previous 3 meetings. Basel will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Die Leuchten, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 9 meetings between the two. In their past 5 meetings, Bebbi's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so Luzern will have to take their chances when they come.
Basel will be looking to continue their winning streak against Luzern, having won each of the last 4 times they have met in the league and being unbeaten in their last 10 meetings.
Basel player Darian Males will be looking to get on the scoresheet again against Luzern, having scored 3 goals in the last 5 league meetings between the teams.
With no real injury worries, Basel manager Alex Frei will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Luzern manager Mario Frick has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
