- Servette Geneve FC are second in the Super League 2024/2025 with 62 points from 37 matches.
- Lausanne-Sports are fifth in the table with 52 points from 37 matches, ten points fewer than their hosts.
An open game is expected
The hosts come into this one with the psychological edge, having won 1-0 in Lausanne just two short months ago. Thomas Haeberli took over as Servette’s manager on the 2nd of July, 2024 and the team has played with an attacking identity ever since.
In his first five Super League games in charge, Servette have won three, drawn one and lost just one. The last three of those saw them play out a 0-0 draw at Young Boys before blitzing Lugano 4-1 at home and edging Luzern 4-3 away from home. Such a high-scoring victory was expected against a poor side who had nothing to play for, but the fact that they got it so quickly was a mark of their confidence.
Servette love to play on the front foot and their new boss has instilled a pressing game in them where they flood the box and look to score goals. They’ve got the better record in this fixture and we feel that the Servette Geneve FC vs Lausanne-Sports prediction will favor the hosts, as they’re going to have too much for their visitors here.
