Zurich vs Sion Prediction: The home team eyes top spot

Letzigrund will host the Swiss Super League game behind Zurich and Sion. Heading into this game, the two teams could not secure a win in their last matches. How will they respond in this fixture?

Zurich ended on the losing end in their last league encounter against Zurich and will look to do better here. In that encounter, Zurich were able to hold their opponent to a 1-1 draw at halftime, but a poor defensive play saw them concede three times in the second half. In the meantime, Zurich have won two and lost two of their last four league matches. In the league this season, Zurich have 14 points, leaving them seated second in the standings. 

Sion's last league encounter was against Lugano, and they held their opponent to a goalless draw. In that game, Sion had 32 percent of the possession and attempted eight shots while failing to convert the only one that was on target. Heading into this game, however, Sion have an unbeaten run of four matches, winning two and drawing two. This season, Sion have accumulated 11 points from their first seven matches, leaving them seated 6th spot. 

Zurich should return to winning ways in this game. At home, this team has not lost in the league this season, and I will trust them. While Zurich vs Sion have also been good in recent matches, I still do not see them stopping this strong side in what should be a low-scoring game.
