FC Zurich host Servette at the Letzigrund on Saturday in the 2023-24 Swiss Super League, looking to tighten their grip on the top of the table.
With 24 points from 12 games, Zurich are currently leading the race for the title, sitting two points ahead of reigning Swiss champions, Young Boys (who have played one game less).
Interestingly, the FCZ have won and drawn six times each in their top-flight campaign so far. Their last two league games have both ended in draws.
Zurich drew 0-0 with Young Boys followed by a 1-1 draw with Stade Lausanne-Ouchy. But on Tuesday, Bo Henriksen's side returned to winning ways with a 1-0 defeat of Bellinzona in the round of 16 of the Swiss Cup.

Jonathan Okita scored the only goal of the game in the 93rd minute to send them through to the last-8.
