FC Zurich, Recent FormAn important point secured against St. Gallen will have left Zürich quite happy with their 2-2 draw. During that encounter they had 45% possession and had 10 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 2 of their 10 shots on goal.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 9 and seen valuable points lost. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late. It's clear that with only 1 clean sheet from the last 6 matches at home, Bo Henriksen will have some concerns regarding his squad's defensive abilities of late.
They have been performing well at Stadion Letzigrund recently and are unbeaten in their last 6 home games.
Aiyegun Tosin will be feeling confident about adding his name to the scoresheet once more at Stadion Letzigrund, having notched up 7 goals for Zürich in their last 6 league matches at home.
Basel, Recent FormBasel will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 2-0 winners in their home fixture against Winterthur. They achieved 59% possession in that match and had 8 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Winterthur's tally of 5 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Heiko Vogel will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 8 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 games. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
Basel will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Basel, Andi Zeqiri will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
The previous match between these two ended without a goal and a share of the spoils, so it wasn't one to remember on that occasion.
Bebbi have some indifferent league form when it comes to away matches against Zürich; they have shipped at least 1 goal in their last 5 games away to them. We've seen plenty of goals from Basel when they've visited Der Stadtclub in the league, in their last 3 games they've scored a total of 9 goals, which is an average of 3 per game. In their last 3 away league games against Der Stadtclub, Basel have conceded a total of 9 goals and that's an average of 3 per game.
Zürich man Nikola Boranijašević will be confident about extending his scoring record against Basel, having hit the netting 3 times in the last 5 times they have met in the league.
With no real injury worries, Zürich manager Bo Henriksen will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Basel manager Heiko Vogel has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
