Winterthur welcome Basel to the Stadion Schutzenwiese for a Swiss Super League matchday 11 fixture on Saturday.
The hosts are coming off a 2-0 defeat at Lausanne last weekend. Alvyn Sanches broke the deadlock in the eighth minute before Alban Ajdini doubled Lausanne's lead midway through the first half.
Basel, meanwhile, claimed a 2-1 comeback home win over St. Gallen. They went behind to Willem Geubbels' seventh-minute goal before Kevin equalised just past the half-hour mark. The 23-year-old then bagged the winner in the fifth minute of injury time.
