Competition: Swiss Super League
Market: Goal to be scored in both halves
Odds: 2/3 @ 1xBet
Simply hoping to widen their buffer at the top of the Super League table, Thun will welcome Lausanne to the Stockhorn Arena on Thursday night.
Starting with the hosts, while Thun might have only made their Super League return this season, Mauro Lustrinelli’s men have certainly cemented their spot as one of Europe’s ultimate surprise packages. Embarking on what has become an iconic fairytale, the Reds astonishingly hold a commanding 11-point buffer at the top of the table and they are cruising their way to a maiden Swiss crown. Only continuing to shatter a string of records this year, Thun have rightfully received a host of plaudits from across the continent and they will simply be looking to make another domestic statement here. Last seen claiming a stellar 3-1 victory away at Servette, Thursday’s hosts have won all of their previous six consecutive Super League appearances on either side of opening the New Year. Getting February underway with a 2-1 victory against Swiss giants Basel, Thun have also gained a fearsome reputation for their free-scoring performances in the final third.
As for the visitors, enduring what has become somewhat of a recent blip, Lausanne are desperate to get their top-half charge back on track. Signing off January with a 2-1 loss away at Winterthur, Peter Zeidler’s side have collected just a pair of points from their previous three Super League appearances and are enduring their longest winless run since the middle of December. Heading into Switzerland’s festive interval with a nightmare 4-0 drumming at home against Luzern, the former Bochum boss will also know the importance of claiming some much-welcomed defensive stability. However, despite facing what is a monumental challenge on Thursday night, Lausanne will be excited by their most recent battle against the runaway Super League leaders. Landing a thrilling 2-1 victory when they welcomed Thun to the Stade de la Tuiliere for their reverse battle on November 30th, the Whites will be confident of asking some potential questions in midweek.
