The Swiss Cup final sees Servette taking on Lugano with a spot in the Europa League third qualifying round going to the winner in addition to the cup. This match will be played at the neutral venue of the Stade de Suisse, the home of league winners Young Boys. It’s largely been a successful season for both sides, with Servette finishing third in the league while Lugano finished as the runners-up. Servette will be confident coming into this clash as they closed out the Championship Playoff portion of the season with a 2-0 away win over Lugano last weekend. The victory snapped a three match winless run and a two-game losing streak for the Granates. Servette had a decent record on the year when playing outside of their home ground, winning seven games, drawing six and losing six.

Lugano really struggled to close out the year in the Championship Playoff portion of the season. They would end the campaign by losing their last two games in a row, including the 2-0 home defeat to their opponents today that we previously mentioned. In total, Lugano lost three of their five playoff matches, which resulted in them finishing 12 points behind eventual champions Young Boys. Lugano will certainly be the side that is more pleased with their season between these two as they secured their best finish since their title winning campaign in 2000/01. One aspect that is sure to give Bianconeri confidence is the fact that they finished with a very strong away record of 10 wins, two draws and seven defeats. With an average of 1.68 points earned per away trip, they were almost able to match their home production which saw them average 1.74 points per game.
