General match analysis
Basel sit 2nd, while Sion are fifth, and the hosts have scored 10 goals in five league matches this season. Both teams are effective in front of goal, averaging 2 goals per game at home and away respectively, but Basel have a clear defensive edge: they allow opponents an xG of 0.93, compared with Sion’s 2.18. The visitors attempt as many as 19 shots per match and maintain 58% possession, but their 11% conversion rate is lower than Basel’s 16%, while they concede as many as 4 goals per away game. Sion lost their only away match so far, whereas Basel have won 3 of their last 5 matches in all competitions. Neither defense has kept a clean sheet yet, so the hosts should win in a game with both teams scoring.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Sion have recorded BTTS - Yes in 100% of their matches so far, while Basel have also seen both teams score in each of their last five games. Both teams are in very open form: Basel have scored an average of 3.4 goals and conceded 2.4 in their last five matches, while Sion have scored 3.2 and conceded 2.6. The visitors have not kept a single clean sheet, and their average expected goals conceded stands at 2.18, which strongly supports a goal for the home side. However, Sion should respond, as they create an average of 1.92 xG and register 5.0 shots on target per match, while Basel allow opponents 1.28 xG. An additional argument is the league-wide BTTS rate of 75%, along with the fact that both teams have seen at least three goals in 100% of their matches.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Both teams have played a full schedule of season matches with at least 2 goals, and 100% of each team’s games have gone over the 2.5-goal line. Basel average 3.0 goals at home, while Sion concede as many as 4.0 goals away, significantly strengthening the hosts’ attacking potential. The xG figures are also high: Basel create chances worth an average of 2.13 xG, while Sion record 1.92 xG, alongside 2.18 xG conceded by the visitors. In their last five matches, Basel scored 17 and conceded 12 goals, while Sion scored 16 and conceded 13; both teams had 100% of their games finish Over 2.5 goals during that period. The safest choice remains Over 1.5 goals, as the combination of highly attacking profiles and Sion’s defensive weaknesses makes a match ending with one goal or fewer highly unlikely.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Basel have a clearly superior home record: they average 3.0 goals scored and 1.0 conceded, and have won 100% of such matches, while Sion lost their only away match so far, conceding as many as four goals. The hosts also create higher-quality chances, with an average xG of 2.13 compared with Sion’s 1.92, while their shot conversion rate stands at 16% versus 11% for the visitors. In the first halves, Basel led at the break in 50% of their home appearances, whereas Sion were behind at half-time in 100% of their away matches, conceding an average of 2.0 goals in those games. After the interval, Basel score an average of 2.0 goals and have not conceded, further supporting the scenario of them maintaining their lead after the break. The main risk comes from Sion’s attacking form in their last five matches, in which they averaged 3.2 goals scored; however, the strongest HT/FT option remains Basel to lead at half-time and win the match, i.e. 1/1.
