Swiss Super League, round 18. Luzern has now lost 5 matches in a row and is now in 8th place with 15 points. Basel is currently in 2nd place, one point behind Young Boys in 1st place. Two teams showing completely different levels, we think Basel shouldn't have any major problems here.
Luzern has never been in the elite of Swiss football, so it's not surprising that the team is now fighting to stay in the league. They have scored only 15 goals in 17 games and have the worst attack in the league. Luzern's defence is not great either, with an average of more than 2 goals conceded in the last few games. It is also worth mentioning that defenders Schulz, Schwegler, Kakabadze and Grether will miss today's game, which should cause even more problems for the defence. As for Basel, they are in great shape right now. They advanced to the next round of the Europa League and also beat Young Boys 3-0 a couple of weeks ago. Basel have the best offence and defence in the league, so it will be very difficult for a thinned out Luzern team today.
So, Swiss Super League, the last round before the winter break. We'd expect Basel to continue their good form and get a win against a much weaker team. H2H is also on Basel's side (last 3 games won). The odds offered are too good not to take. Good luck.
