Swiss Super League, 18th round. Luzern has lost 5 games in a row and is now in 8th place with 15 points. Meanwhile, Basel is currently in 2nd place, trailing the first-place Young Boys by one point. Two teams showing completely different levels, we believe Basel should not face major difficulties here.
Luzern has never been among the elite of Swiss football, so it is no surprise that the team is now fighting to stay in the league. In 17 matches, they have scored only 15 goals, showing the worst offense in the entire league. Luzern's defense is also lacking, conceding more than 2 goals on average in recent matches. It is also worth mentioning that defenders Schulz, Schwegler, Kakabadze, and Grether will miss today's home game, which should cause even more problems in defense. Speaking of Basel, they are in great form right now. They advanced to the next stage in the Europa League and also defeated Young Boys 3-0 a couple of weeks ago. Basel shows the best offense and defense in the league, so it will be extremely difficult for the depleted Luzern team today.
So, Swiss Super League, the last round before the winter break. We believe Basel will continue their good form and win against a much weaker team. H2H is also in Basel's favor (winning the last 3 matches). The offered odds are too good to pass up. Good luck.
