Lausanne vs Basel Prediction: Both teams are hoping for a better season

Stade de la Tuilière will host the Swiss Super League game between Lausanne and Basel. Both teams had a poor season the previous season. How will they perform this season?

Basel are coming off a poor season and will look to do better in this one. In 38 matches, Basel picked just 49 points from a possible 114. In those matches, Basel scored 45 goals while conceding 52. In their games into this new season, Basel are unbeaten in 12 matches, winning six and drawing six. In those matches, Basel scored 17 goals while conceding 6.

Lausanne will hope they can do better after a poor 2023/2024 season. Last season, Lausanne finished 10th and could only avoid relegation as they accumulated only 45 points from 38 matches. Lausanne scored 48 goals in those matches, fewer than the numbers they conceded, 53. Heading into this game, Lausanne have two wins in their last five games. However, they lost two others and drew with Nice.

It is tough to pick based on how the two teams finished the previous season. However, heading into this new season, Basel are in better shape, looking at how their recent games have ended. Yet, at home, Lausanne can not be written off, and while they could resort to defensive play, a few goals could be expected.
