Stade Nyonnais vs Sion tips and predictions

Challenge League match offers big price against home success

A result is well within Stade Nyonnais's capabilities.

These away players apparently have too much firepower but it might not be as straightforward as that. The hosts have secured 13 home wins from their last 20 games. It could also be significant that the visitors have lost 1 of their last 3 matches home and away. For such a short priced team, perhaps they'd be expected to have done better than this. The average fan seems to think that Sion have won this before a ball has even been kicked. This preview outlines some reasons why that might not be the case.

If Stade Nyonnais get this done they will need to build on their recent performances. The hosts are enjoying some form on their own soil. They scored three or more goals in 8 of their recent 19 home matches coupled with some top-notch defending at home and when away. At the back they've conceded no more than once in all of their last 3 games.

In front of goal, the visitors have been underwhelming. They've scored one or less goals in 2 of their last 3 matches. The stats present a pretty ugly scenario for the travelling team's forward players.

Sion are the favourites and they'll be looking to keep it tidy in defence. It's not a strong view so it isn't one to get stuck into but the No BTTS bet looks like the pick there.

It might be that the impressive finishing in the hosts' recent performances will be a key component of the task in front of them. If they are to somehow pull it off, it is essential that they build on those showings.
