Both teams have demonstrated a penchant for mutual scoring: Sion has traded goals in four of its last five league matches, including draws with Servette (3-3) and Basel (1-1). Basel also regularly scores and concede goals, with three of its last four Premier League meetings having resulted in both goals.
Their head-to-head record confirms this trend. Three of their last four Super League encounters have resulted in goals, with two of those ending in draws. The only meeting this season ended 1-1, while Basel won 2-0 in the previous campaign, but the scoring remained high.
Given their league position (both clubs are in the top half of the table), their motivation, and their recent statistics, it's logical to expect both teams to score. Sion is traditionally dangerous at home, while Basel consistently creates chances even on the road.
