Servette (home)
- Servette will come at Basel with a completely different approach as they play a much more compact, pragmatic style with plenty of spirit, making this Servette Geneve FC vs FC Basel prediction particularly intriguing.
- Miroslav Stevanović has been a reliable provider of goals for Servette this year and showed he can be a difference-maker in their 2-1 win over Basel in February, while Alexis Antunes is a creative midfielder who has a history of scoring against Basel.
Basel (away)
- Both sides have made reasonable starts to the 2025-2026 campaign with Basel sitting 5th on 12 points from seven games and the hosts 8th on eight from the same number of fixtures, which is important to consider when reviewing our Servette Geneve FC vs FC Basel betting tips.
- Ludovic Magnin has done an impressive job so far, instilling an energetic, structured style of play on the players that has seen them make an excellent start domestically and in Europe.
- They have won four of their last five league games - including a 4-1 blowout of Young Boys - and picked up back-to-back away wins at Thun and Sion in their most recent road games.
Head-to-Head
- Basel have won four of the last five Swiss Super League meetings with Servette, including a 5-1 victory last May and a 6-0 triumph in August last year.
- Each of the last five head-to-head matches has seen at least three goals scored.
Key Players
- Xherdan Shaqiri remains the creative hub for Basel and is their top scorer this season.
- The former Stoke and Bayern Munich star pulled the strings in their away win at Sion and can cause problems at both ends of the field if given the time and space on Sunday.
- Swiss international Philip Otele has added some power to Basel’s frontline with early-season goals and veteran Albian Ajeti can usually be relied upon to put away his chances.
- Servette have found some scoring form in the past week with a 4-0 trouncing of Winterthur preceded by a solid 2-0 away victory at Sion.
- However, summer signing Florian Ayé announced himself to Servette fans with a brace in the Winterthur win and could be a major threat here.
