Servette will welcome FC Zurich to the Stade de Geneve for a Swiss Super League fixture on Sunday.
The two sides will be looking to return to winning ways following their respective results last weekend. The hosts suffered a harrowing 4-1 defeat away to Lausanne in a loss that was inspired by Mohamed Amdouni's hat-trick.
Zurich settled for a share of the spoils in a 1-1 draw with city rivals Grasshopper on home turf. They missed a first-half penalty and needed an 82nd-minute equalizer to snatch a point from the jaws of defeat.
Despite the draw, their lead at the summit was unaffected. They still hold a 12-point advantage over second-place Basel, having garnered 63 points from 28 matches. Servette sit in eighth spot on 38 points.
