The championship in the Swiss Super League was decided on the 35th matchday of the current season. The Confederates have not had such an exciting title fight for years. After the title hat trick for the Young Boys, an important question is answered on the last day – who has to go to the Barrage?

FC Zurich – Statistics & current form

FC Zurich recently made many headlines in Swiss football and almost total knockout. the 2019/20 season, after several players, tested positive and the tight schedule in the Swiss Football House was questioned. All players had to go to quarantine and in the Sankt Jakobs Park in Basel, the FCZ was a guest with a U21 team.

The FCZ has not won any points since the quarantine

The 0: 4 defeat against the 20-time champions was therefore not a surprise and the young savages presented themselves at times competitive. The professionals have not been competitive since the home quarantine, because in the last five games the Magnin-Elf only received defeats in the best line-up, with just two meager goals being scored.

Fortunately, the FCZ collected 42 points before the renewed interruption, escaping a real relegation thriller on the last day of the game. FCZ lost 1-2 to FC Luzern, but thanks to the results of the competition, relegation was fixed.

Thun – Statistics & current form

The team from Bernese Oberland is extremely down-to-earth and year after year relegation is the goal. Last year, when qualifications for Europe were successful, head coach Marc Schneider always looked down. FC Thun can assess its qualities quite well and is equipped with a mini-budget. Nevertheless, strong results have repeatedly been achieved in recent years.

Almost non-stop since relegation day seven

In 2019/20, however, the team never really found consistency and always had the relegation ghost on their necks. A detailed look at the Super League table shows that the Schneider team has been in tenth or ninth place almost continuously since matchday seven. A great mental strain and yet the nerves were never thrown away. The club management acted calmly and always stood behind long-term coach Marc Schneider.

Thun in great shape

A decision that has paid off. Even if relegation has not yet been secured, direct descent is no longer an issue. The Elf from the Bernese Oberland can also go into the last Super League game of the season with great confidence. The form is satisfactory after all Thun hasn’t lost six league games (three wins, three draws).

Last Friday Thun made a goalless draw against FC Basel and was nevertheless disappointed after the game. Thun had clear headwaters but neglected some chances. Due to the poorer goal difference compared to Sion (-6 goals), complete success is needed in case of a Sion victory.

The probable lineup of Thun:
➤ Faivre – Hefti, Havenaar, Stillhart, Glarner – Hasler, Bertone, Karlen – Castroman – Munsy, Bande
