Grasshoppers vs Aarau Prediction & Tips
Grasshoppers finished tenth in the regular phase of the Swiss Super League, scoring 33 points in 33 games and entering the relegation group. In the five playout matches, the club tried to secure a direct relegation spot, but failed to do so: three defeats and two wins for a total of six points that proved to be insufficient. Grasshoppers ended the season with 39 points, just one less than the team that finished tenth, which determined their participation in the relegation play-off series.
Their opponents will be Challenge League runners-up Aarau. After 36 rounds, the team had 61 points, 11 fewer than the champions. Aarau scored 63 goals – the second-highest total in the championship – and conceded 45, making them the third-strongest defence. They played to a 1-1 draw last time out, and in their last five matches, they have only managed one win. However, Aarau are on an impressive offensive run, scoring in 23 consecutive matches.
