FC Basel is second in the standings, having three wins and one failure. On Saturday night, on “Stade de la Maladiere” will be played the match between Neuchatel Xamax vs FC Basel, from round 5 of the Swiss Super League.

Xamax: Form of moment, last results, statistics

Xamax cleaned up a little more with the Swiss Cup victory, defeating Yverdon 2-1 and qualifying in the sixteenth. In the rest, the championship evolved below expectations, and after four games is the last place. It has three equal results, all with goals scored, as well as a failure. Also, she is the only team in the Super League that has not managed to feel the taste of success so far and as it seems the program is not favorable.

FC Basel: Form of moment, last results, statistics

FC Basel is one of the lucky ones who, although eliminated from the Champions League, went directly to the Europa League groups. Thus, it is her chance to take advantage of the fact that Young Boys, her rival, has a UCL playoff match and play to attack first position. The team is in second place, at a length behind its rival. Moreover, FC Basel is in shape, managed in the previous round to make the show, winning 3-1 at home, in front of Servette. He also secured the participation in the sixteenth of the Swiss Cup, after last week disposed with 4-1 fans from Pully.

Xamax vs FC Basel Picks

Guests play for the first place, one more reason to be motivated even more in front of a team that is in full suffering anyway. FC Basel was the team that managed in the last two official matches, both played in 2019, to win at least two goals difference. After this championship start, all the guests seem to be one step ahead and I hope to keep it the same after Saturday’s game.

Our Prediction: 2
