There will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Basel players having failed to take any points away from their recent 3-2 away defeat at the hands of Yverdon-Sport. Their share of possession in that meeting was 56%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to Yverdon-Sport, who had 15 shots on goal with 7 on target.
Whilst manager Timo Schultz will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 14 goals conceded in the same period. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 10 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 16 games.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.
Fabian Frei 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 enter this game with a comfortable 2-0 home win over Servette last time out in the league. In that game they had 36% possession and managed 8 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Servette who had 27 attempts and 8 on target.
Manager Mario Frick will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Max Meyer 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 Luzern.
