Luzern vs Lausanne Prediction: A high scoring encounter

In the upcoming round 31 match of the Swiss Super League, Luzern will face Lausanne at the Swissporarena. Currently, the two teams occupy the 7th and 8th positions in the standings, respectively. Let's delve into the match previews and make a prediction.

Luzern aims to replicate their previous 1-0 victory in the Super League against Yverdon. In that game, Luzern held 48% possession and made 11 attempts on goal, with 4 on target. Lars Villiger (2') was the sole scorer for Luzern. Yverdon, on the other hand, had 13 attempts on goal, with only 2 on target. Mario Frick's Luzern has scored 6 goals in their last six matches while conceding the same number. Leading up to this match, Luzern has not lost in their last 2 home league games.

Lausanne enters this match with three wins in their last five games, defeating Basel, Young Boys, and Grasshopper. However, they suffered a loss against Servette, and one match ended in a draw against St. Gallen. In their last six encounters, Lausanne scored a total of 8 goals, consistently finding the back of the net. However, they also conceded 7 goals during that period. Looking ahead to this match, Lausanne hasn't secured a victory against Luzern in their last 6 away league matches.

Analyzing the past matches of both teams, we've seen a minimum of three goals in the last four encounters. Given that both teams are currently vulnerable in defense, we can expect a similar outcome. Additionally, the hosts have historically been the dominant side in this fixture, especially when playing at home. Therefore, I don't anticipate them struggling to secure all three points in this match.
