Grasshoppers, Recent FormGrasshoppers 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 Yverdon-Sport. They came away from that fixture with 59% of the possession and clocked up 13 attempts on goal with 6 on target. By comparison, Yverdon-Sport managed 14 attempts on goal, with 4 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Marco Schällibaum 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 have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games, and they have conceded at least one goal in 16 of their 18 games at Stadion Letzigrund this season.
With 3 defeats and just 2 wins from their last 6 outings, this cannot be regarded as a good run of form.
Basel, Recent FormBasel will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-0 home win against Stade Lausanne-Ouchy. In that game they recorded 54 % of the possession, with 9 attempts on goal, 5 on target. Their opponents found the target on 1 of their 8 shots on goal.
Manager Fabio Celestini will be pleased with his team's performances recently, having only conceded 3 in their last 6 games, while still managing to score a respectable 8 goals. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 6 games on the road.
There will be mixed feelings from Bebbi, having been undefeated in their last 3 away league games, but drawn the last 2 of these games.
Thierno Barry will be hoping to create problems for Grasshoppers in this one, having scored 4 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Basel.
It was one to forget for Basel last time they met Grasshoppers in the league, falling to a 2-1 defeat.
Goals should be on the cards for Grasshoppers in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Bebbi in their last 10 meetings together.
Basel has a very poor track record against Grasshoppers when playing away from home in the league, losing the last 4 times they have met at Stadion Letzigrund.
Grasshoppers 3 - 5 BaselWith no real injury worries, Grasshoppers manager Marco Schällibaum 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.
