Grasshopper vs Basel Prediction
Grasshopper started the season with a five-game unbeaten run in the league, but a return of just two wins from their last ten games has seen them plummet down the standings.
They also have a poor recent record against Basel, although their potent attack means they're likely to create enough goalscoring chances.
Games involving the two teams are typically high-scoring affairs, but Basel should claim a win, with goals at both ends.
