After delivering four winners from five selections on Saturday, SlipsTips has a pair of picks from the Swiss Super League on Sunday.
Sion vs FC Zürich (Sunday, 13:15)
FC Zürich will be aiming to make it 10 straight victories in the Swiss Super League when they visit Sion on Sunday afternoon.
André Breitenreiter’s side moved one step closer to their first top-flight title since 2009 as they made light work of Lugano last weekend, extending their lead at the top of the table to 10 points in the process.
Sion, meanwhile, are languishing in mid-table following a 1-0 loss at lowly Luzern, and it will be fair to say that there will be a huge step up in class here.
The league leaders will have their backers at a general 21/20 but I'm more than happy to instead side with the 66/67 (SportNation) on Zürich -0-25 in the Asian Handicap.
This selection sees our stakes split, with half going on FC Zürich draw no bet and the other half going on the outright win, and that makes appeal with the visitors in such scintillating form.
Der Stadtclub, as already mentioned, have triumphed in each of their last nine Swiss top-flight assignments, with Breitenreiter’s boys repeatedly blowing teams away with a seemingly endless supply of goals.
In fact, five of Zürich’s last six league wins have arrived by a margin of two goals or more, which doesn’t bode well for the hosts, who have fallen to defeat in each of the previous two meetings between the pair this season (6-2 & 1-0).
Therefore, supporting FC Zürich with a 0-25 start on the Asin Handicap at 66/67 (SportNation) holds plenty of appeal at the Stade de Tourbillon on Sunday afternoon.
With all things considered, the 17/20 (Betway) about over Over 1.5 FC Zürich goals also looks like an appetising wager given the high frequency of goals being scored by the Swiss table-toppers.
Overall, Zürich have notched up two or more strikes in 15 (71%) of 21 Swiss Super League outings this season so far, yet the odds imply a 54.1% chance of the same play providing profit this weekend.
