Preview

Match preview

Cham host FC Sion in the round of 32 of the Swiss Cup, looking to test themselves after securing three wins in their last four matches in all competitions. The hosts advanced through the previous cup stage with a 2-0 victory and have shown sharp attacking form recently, having scored three goals against Young Boys II and two against Bulle. However, a 4-2 defeat to Bulle also highlighted vulnerabilities in their back line when facing aggressive forward play.

FC Sion enter this tie looking to steady their form following three consecutive away defeats, including a 3-0 loss at Servette FC and a 5-1 reverse against Saint Etienne. Despite recent defensive struggles where they surrendered 12 goals across their last three outings, Sion have demonstrated significant scoring punch when opportunities arise, as evidenced by their 6-1 away win in the previous cup round and a 5-2 victory at Grasshoppers.

With both sides showing consistent scoring capability and Sion experiencing open, high-scoring contests on the road, this cup tie presents an environment where opportunities should be created at both ends.
