They have also conceded in 80% of those encounters, making the "Over 2.5 Goals" market a solid betting option, especially as neither team will be satisfied with a draw.

Preview
Basel and Grasshopper face at Leichtathletik‑Stadion St. Jakob, in a match for the 30th round of the Super League. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 14‑12‑2024, Grasshopper got an away win by (0‑1). The recent head‑to‑head record favours the home team, since they have a record of 8 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses in the last 16 matches. Although this is a match between 2nd and 11th of the league table, it’s actually a match between the 5th best in home matches and the 9th best in away matches.

Analysis Basel

The home team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 49 points won, after 14 wins, 7 draws and 8 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Young Boys, by (1‑2). In the last match, they won in an away match against Winterthur, by (0‑2). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since they have won 23 points in away matches, with 34 goals scored and 18 conceded, against 26 points won at their stadium, with 25 goals scored and 13 conceded. For the league, Basel won 20 points out of 30 possible points, after 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 11 of their 29 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 3.

The Basel team remains in the title race despite struggling to assert themselves in the most demanding moments. The recent home defeat to Young Boys is a good example. Similarly, the home loss to Grasshopper in December was another unexpected result, demonstrating that Basel tends to falter under pressure. Even so, they are the only team that could take sole possession of first place, as they sit two points behind the leaders but have a game in hand. Now, they host Grasshopper, a team theoretically within their reach. The question remains whether Basel will perform at their expected level or stumble once again.

Confirmed Lineup: Marwin Hitz, Josafat Wooding Mendes, Dominik Schmid, Jonas Adjei Adjetey, Nicolas Vouilloz, Leon Avdullahu, Abemly Meto Silu, Xherdan Shaqiri, Albian Ajeti, Philip Otele, Bénie Traore.
Coach: A. Frei.

Analysis Grasshopper

The away team is currently in the 11th position of the league, with 27 points won, after 5 wins, 12 draws and 12 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Sion, by (1‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Zürich, by (1‑2). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, with 18 goals scored and 22 conceded at home, against 11 goals scored and 19 conceded in away matches. Their last away match was for the Club Friendlies and ended in a loss by (1‑0) against Young Boys. In the last 10 away league matches Grasshopper has a record of 2 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑1 (5 out of 14 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 9 of the last 14 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 29 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 15 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 14 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 8 of their 19 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

The Grasshopper team finds itself in a very difficult situation, similar to what they experienced last season. They sit in the penultimate position of the Swiss Super League, five points behind Yverdon, with only four rounds remaining in the regular phase. This second-to-last place does not result in direct relegation but leads to a play-off against a team from the second division. This was how Grasshopper managed to stay in the Swiss Super League last season. Now, they face a tough trip to Basel, especially considering they have not won in their last four away matches. However, it is worth noting that Grasshopper is a team that regularly finds the net when playing away from home.

Confirmed Lineup: Justin Hammel, Ayumu Seko, Dirk Abels, Maksim Paskotši, Sonny Kittel, Hassane Imourane, Tim Meyer, Giotto Morandi, Nestory Irankunda, Young-Jun Lee.
Coach: T. Oral.
