Sion vs Luzern: Team News and Expert Analysis
Sion collected 63 points last season, which was enough to finish fourth. That secured them a spot in the Conference League, where, after a draw in a formally away match, they confidently won against BATE at home. In the season opener against Young Boys, they managed to come back from 0-2, but then conceded two more goals and ultimately lost.
Luzern had a disappointing previous campaign, ending up in the lower part of the table. They finished seventh with 53 points, only edging out Servette on tiebreakers. In the opener against Thun, Luzern scored literally on their first attack, in the second minute. However, they immediately conceded in return, and ultimately lost 1-3 in a lackluster performance.
Didier Tholot's side averaged 1.66 goals scored, conceding a third less—an average of 1.05. Their guests played a more entertaining but ultimately less successful style: scoring two goals per round, but allowing opponents to net 1.74 goals on average.
