Grasshoppers vs Basel Predictions and Top Betting Tips

Grasshoppers vs Basel should be an incredible match and we have high expectations. Here are our predictions.

Both Teams To Score Prediction: Yes

These two teams have always been among the highest scoring in Switzerland but overall, this league has always been one of the wildest. Most of the games end with high scoreline. Most between these two teams in recent years have been the same. Four out of Grashoppers' last five games ended with both teams scoring goals. All five of Basel's recent matches ended with BTTS.

Match Result Prediction: Basel to Win

We have not seen much from Grasshoppers but the team seems to be a bit out of shape and we do not think that their chances are good here. Moreover, Basel just got destroyed in the Europa Conference League by a significantly weaker opponent. This means that they will be extremely angry and motivated for a better performance here and potentially a run for the title, now that they are out of Europe for this campaign.

Correct Score Prediction: 3-1 to Basel

It is impossible to predict a scoreline with high certainty between these two teams. They are capable of everything from 1-0 to 5-1 or more. But we think that 3-1 is a good option here. When we compare the Grasshoppers vs Basel line ups, we think that both sides have quality but Basel should have a slight advantage here.

Grasshoppers vs Basel Team Previews

Grasshoppers Preview

Grasshoppers really failed last season and it was all due to their weak defense. The team has always been incredible in attack but that last campaign showed unbelievable weaknesess on the other end. The team finished with a goal difference of 56:64 in 36 games. The first few games of the new campaign showed that the problems still exist and the team started with two rounds without a win.

Basel Preview

Basel played another disappointing season and we do not know what to expect from the team right now. They barely reached the qualification round for the Europa Conference League and they have already been taken out of the tournament, after losing to the far weaker team of Tobol. Basel have some serious problems in defense and if it doesn't change, we think that they will fail this season too.
