Basel vs Sion Prediction: Basel to end winless league run

At St. Jakob-Park, Basel will play Sion in round 26 of the Swiss Super League. The two teams last meeting was in late January and Basel won with ease. Can Sion be a problem this time? The preview of this game is available in the following section with betting opportunities. 

Basel

Basel's last encounter was against Etoile-Carouge in the Swiss Cup and they won. In a 1-3 encounter, this team came from behind to book a semifinal spot, thanks to Kevin brace and Gabriel Sigua’s strike. In the meantime, Basel's last league match ended in a 2-2 draw with St. Gallen. Ahead of this game, Basel have lost only one of their last ten matches in all competitions, coming against Servette. In other encounters, this team won six and drew three.

Sion

Sion played Luzern away from home in their last league game and ended on the losing end. In a 2-1 contest, goals from Adrian Grbic and an own goal by Kreshnik Hajrizi were enough to seal a win for their opponent despite Severin Ottiger's own goal reducing their deficit. Ahead of this week 26 game, Sion have only one win in recent matches, coming in a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Zurich. In other matches, this team lost to Young Boys, Lugano, Basel, Grasshoppers, and FUS Rabat, among other teams. In 25 matches played, Sion have 30 points and sit 9th in the spot, being seven points adrift of playoffs. 

Expert Betting Tips

After enduring a number of tough results in the league, I feel Basel will find success in this game. In the meantime, the visiting Sion offensive level of play is high, with goals in each of their recent matches. Also, while Basel's defence is weak, I expect goals from these two sides in a game that should feature multiple goals like their last meeting.
