On Friday, 31 May, as part of the Swiss Super League playoff, Thun will host Grasshopper at their stadium.
The team finished in second place in the Challenge League, thus earning the chance to fight for a spot in the top division. Thun scores a lot (an average of 2.4 goals per match), but the stakes are too high to play attacking football right from the start. They almost always perform excellently in front of their home crowd.
The visitors failed the end of the season and now must defend their right to participate in the Super League. The last match did not go well, as they barely avoided losing at their own stadium, managing to equalise in extra time (1:1). Grasshopper had many chances that they could not capitalise on, and now they will have to fight away against a motivated Thun.
Since 2021, the teams have faced each other six times. They have drawn twice (1:1, 0:0), Thun has two wins (1:0, 3:2), and Grasshopper also has two victories (3:1, 2:0).
The hosts have been stuck in the second division for too long and are intent on returning to the Super League, while Grasshopper does not seem to be striving to maintain their position. I wouldn’t risk betting on a win for Thun, but a Double Chance (1X) seems like a viable option.
