FC Luzern
- FC Luzern are the bookmakers’ favorites to take the win when they host Grasshopper Club Zurich in a crucial mid-table clash on Tuesday, but we feel Mario Frick’s side are a little overvalued at 1.97.
- With both sides in the middle of the table and fighting for momentum ahead of the league split, there’s plenty at stake for these two clubs in Super League 2025-2026.
- Luzern have won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five matches in all competitions, a run which includes a spirited 2-2 home tie against FC St. Gallen in the Super League and 2-1 away defeat to Stade Lausanne Ouchy in the Swiss Cup.
- Frick’s team has been in freefall on home soil this season, with one win, five draws and five defeats from 11 attempts, conceding a worrying 24 goals in the process.
Grasshopper Club Zurich
- Grasshopper Club Zurich have seen plenty of change since Gerald Scheiblehner took over as head coach in July 2025, but the early signs are that he is making his mark.
- His teams have tended to favour wing overloads, a structured build-up with wing-backs pushing on, and a more systematized pressing style than we have seen from Luzern.
- They’re in equally mixed form with 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats in their last 5 games, with a 1-1 home tie against FC Lugano.
Head-to-Head
Luzern have won three of the last five meetings with Grasshopper, including a 6-0 victory three months ago.
Key Players

Betting Insights
- The short prices reflect how much is riding on momentum before the league split.
- Odds: Luzern 1.97, Grasshopper 3.51, Draw 3.55.
- As both teams have weak defenses, the over 2.5 goals market looks an interesting alternative to the moneyline.
Prediction
We’re going with Luzern to come out on top, as they have the home edge , recent head-to-head form is in their favour, and they’ll be hungry to add three points to the cause.
