Lugano vs Luzern Prediction: Tough test for Lugano at home

At Cornaredo Stadium, Lugano will play Luzern in round 4 of the Swiss Super League. Both teams head into this game with a win. Which side will keep the momentum?

Lugano

League-leading Lugano will confidently head into this game as they aim to extend their perfect record. In their last league game, Lugano played Servette, and they came from behind to secure a 3-1 win, thanks to Mohamed Belhadj and Renato Steffen strikes, including an own goal by Bradley Mazikou. In the meantime, this team took on Partizan on the road in the Europa League in midweek and won 0-1. Heading into this game, Lugano have three wins in their last five matches, with their defeats being against Fenerbahce in the Champions League qualifier. 

Luzern

Luzern's last league encounter was against Sion, and this team secured a 1-0 win over the newly promoted side. In that game, this team was held to a goalless draw at halftime and then needed an early second-half strike by Nicky Beloko to secure maximum points. In the meantime, their first two league games of the season saw them draw Grasshoppers and then lose to Servette. This season, Luzern have 4 points and are seated 6th in the standings after three matches.

Expert Betting Tips

Lugano are the better team in this fixture and I will back them to win. Last weekend, Luzern had their first win, and I do not see them as a balanced team yet. While Lugano have been good in the league and Europe, I do not expect them to struggle, and with defensive difficulties from both teams, goals are expected in this game.
