Grasshopper Basel betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 10^th position of the league, no points won yet. In their debut they lost in an away match against Lausanne Sport, by (3‑2). In the second round, they lost in a home match against Lugano, by (1‑2). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 19 goals scored and 17 conceded; against 6 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 14 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Basel has won 3, tied 3 and lost 4. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.

A lot of ink has been spilled in the papers about Basel's poor performances. Last season's disastrous campaign was thought to be difficult to repeat. It’s true that we are only in the second round, and it’s too early to draw any conclusions. However, for a team like Basel to have no points from the first two rounds is cause to believe that another tough season may be ahead. In the first-round match, Basel faced an opponent they should have been able to handle, but the reality is they conceded three goals and ended up losing the game. The narrow defeat wasn’t even a bad result, considering Basel’s performance in that match. A response was expected in the second round, but Basel again made defensive errors, making it very difficult to secure victories. This third round will be another in which Basel will face an opponent they should be able to handle, even playing away. This game will certainly be telling for what Basel's season in the 2024/2025 Swiss Super League might look like.
