Sion, Recent FormAfter a crushing 4-0 away loss to Young Boys Bern, the Sion squad will need to dig deep to build confidence among their squad. They came away from that fixture with 30% of the possession and clocked up 7 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Young Boys Bern managed 33 attempts on goal, with 8 on target.
Manager Christian Constantin will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 3 goals, conceded 14, and picked up a meagre 2 points. With no goals in 3 of their last 6 matches at home, they are showing signs of a problem finding the net at their home ground. This season, their defensive frailties have certainly been apparent, having conceded at least 1 goal in 20 of their 24 league games.
The misery continues for Sion, having not won any of their last 13 games.
Giovanni Sio will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Sion.
Grasshoppers, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 2-1 home win over Winterthur in their last league game, Grasshoppers will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. Their share of possession in that meeting was 51%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. Winterthur had 10 shots on goal with 1 on target.
Giorgio Contini will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 6 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 7 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They, for whatever reason, are unable to keep a clean sheet away from home, having not done so for the past 15 games. Few teams have managed to keep GCZ away from their goal, having scored in all but 2 of their games this season.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing 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 12 away games.
Away from home in the league, Guilherme Schettine has given the Grasshoppers travelling fans plenty to get excited about, with 3 goals from their last 6 games on the road.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 4-4 draw.
Goals should be on the cards for Sion in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against GCZ in their last 8 meetings together.
The last 2 league meetings between these sides ended in a share of the points, but Sion might consider themselves in a better position, having a run of form in this fixture that has seen them unbeaten in their last 4 encounters.
Giovanni Sio will be looking to get on the scoresheet for Sion against Grasshoppers in this one, having netted 3 goals in the previous 5 encounters between the two.
With no real injury worries, Sion manager Christian Constantin will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Grasshoppers manager Giorgio Contini has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
