Winterthur will host Basel at the Stadion Schutzenwiese on Tuesday in another round of the 2023-24 Swiss Super League campaign.
The home side are enjoying a good run of form at the moment and are now pushing for the Championship round. They beat Stade Ls Ouchy 3-1 in their last match, with Luca Zuffi and Nishan Burkart scoring a quickfire first-half double before Randy Schneider sealed the win at the death with his first away goal for the club.
Winterthur sit mid-table in sixth place with 26 points from 20 matches. They are four points above their midweek opponents in ninth place and will be looking to further widen that gap with maximum points on Tuesday.
Trending
