Grasshopper Club Zurich (home)
- Grasshopper have won only three of their 15 home games in the Super League this season (D5, L7).
- GCZ are on a four-game losing streak after being routed 5-1 at Thun and 5-0 at Servette in their last two matches.
- Gernot Messner’s men are starting to play with more ambition since he took charge in March 2026, moving to a high-tempo system with wide forwards and a number 10 to create space for through balls.
- The problem is they have been exploited too many times in transition by good counter-attacking teams and they lack enough players with the speed and skills to make the attacking style work.
Sion (away)
- Sion have won four, drawn seven and lost four of their 15 away Super League matches this term.
- Sion will look to continue their good away form when they face Grasshopper Club Zurich in the Swiss Super League on Monday night.
- Sion are fifth in the 2025-2026 Super League table with 46 points from 31 games and are pushing for a solid top-half finish to the season.
- Sion have won only one, drawn three and lost one of their last five matches, taking four points from their last three away games, including a 2-1 success at FC Zuerich last time out.
Head-to-Head
- Both clubs have scored 22 goals apiece in their 15 respective home or away Super League games, an average of 1.47 goals per game.
- Both clubs have averaged 2.0 goals per game over the last five meetings in all competitions in Zurich, with Sion holding a slight edge at 3-2.
Key Players
Rilind Nivokazi is Sion's top scorer with 11 goals in 31 matches and has been a constant focal point up front.
Betting Insights
- The odds of 2.35 for the visitors to take the points are too good to ignore as Sion are higher in the standings and in much better form than GCZ.
- Didier Tholot has been at the club since July 2023 and is known to be a tactically-disciplined coach who can make good changes if needed.
- There looks every chance of this turning into a high-scoring game with both teams looking to get forward and create chances.
- Luke Plange is GCZ’s top scorer with 10 league goals, and he has scored 2 goals in Grasshopper's last five matches, so will be their main hope for a win.
Prediction
- A wide open game looks likely here with Sion’s solid defensive foundation and counter-attacking flair up against GCZ’s new-found attacking ambition.
- Back Sion to take the points at 2.35, with a strong chance of Both Teams To Score.
