155%(2.19)
X25%(3.40)
220%(2.80)

Neuchâtel Xamax presents solid disposition at their own stadium, where they win 42% of their matches and concede an average of just 1.08 goals per game. The hosts hold an advantage in expected goals (xG 1.67 vs 1.41), which proves the superior quality of chances created. Rapperswil-Jona is struggling with serious issues in away matches, losing as much as 58% of their fixtures and conceding an average of 1.5 goals. The visitors' recent form (1.4 PPG) is slightly weaker than the hosts' (1.6 PPG), and their away goal difference (0) indicates a lack of stability.
