Lugano, Recent FormLugano 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 Luzern. Their share of possession in that meeting was 47%, while racking up 8 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Luzern, who had 22 shots on goal with 6 on target.
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. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Stadio Di Cornaredo.
With 3 defeats and just 2 wins from their last 6 outings, this cannot be regarded as a good run of form.
Basel, Recent FormLast time out for Basel resulted in a perhaps unsurprising 1-1 draw against Stade Lausanne-Ouchy in a match they really wanted to win. In that game they had 50% possession and managed 6 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Stade Lausanne-Ouchy who had 10 attempts and 3 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 10, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 14 of their 15 games overall.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 9 games.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
Lugano will be confident of finding the net in this one against Bebbi, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 5 encounters between the two sides.
It has been a share of the points the last 2 times these sides have met in the league, with the game ending in a draw on both occasions; that said, Lugano may be feeling slightly more positive, having built up a run of 4 matches undefeated against their opponents.
With no real injury worries, Lugano manager Mattia Croci-Torti will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
There is only really one injury concern for the Basel manager Fabio Celestini ahead of this clash, with Yusuf Demir (Stomach trouble) missing out, which gives Celestini a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
