Sion, Recent FormA 2-2 draw against Servette will be viewed as a positive outcome for Sion and a valuable point into the bargain. In that game they had 42% possession and managed 7 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Servette who had 16 attempts and 3 on target.
They have found the net 7 times in their last 6 matches, but it hasn't earned them much points-wise due to a leaky defence that's shipped 14 goals in that same period. They have shown that they have a consistent appetite for goals at home of late, having clocked up goals in 5 of their last 6 matches at Stade de Tourbillon. It's clear that with only 1 clean sheet from the last 6 matches at home, Fabio Celestini will have some concerns regarding his squad's defensive abilities of late.
A recent poor run of home form for Sion in the league has seen them lose 3 games in a row at Stade de Tourbillon.
Mario Balotelli 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 Sion.
FC Zurich, Recent FormZürich will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 1-0 winners in their home fixture against St. Gallen. Their share of possession in that meeting was 37%, while racking up 8 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. St. Gallen had 13 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Bo Henriksen will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 9 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 9 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 away games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win. So far this season, the bulk of their league games on the road have ended in disappointment, having won just 1 of their first 9 away games.
Jonathan Okita will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Sion in this match, having already scored 3 goals in his last 6 away games for Zürich.
