Lugano vs Zurich Prediction
Zurich were in danger of suffering relegation just one season after winning the league, but the defending champions have steadied the ship in recent weeks. Their form post the World Cup break has been impressive, but they're not yet clear of relegation danger.
Lugano, meanwhile, have punched above their weight and are in the running for continental qualification. They have managed just one win in their last seven league games but have won their last three meetings against Zurich.
Although either team could nick a win, the spoils could be shared in a low-scoring draw.
