Head-to-head statistics Grasshopper - Zurich

Grasshopper Team Overview
Grasshopper have four points and sit 11th, having played one game fewer than most of their rivals. Over their last ten matches they have won five, drawn two and lost three, so their overall results look better than their current league position suggests. During that run they have averaged 1.4 goals scored per game but have been conceding 2.4, and it is the defence that remains the main source of problems. That vulnerability regularly forces the team to compensate through active play going forward, which is particularly relevant ahead of a match against a direct rival.

The defensive problems have been particularly evident away from home, so keeping things tight at the back could be one of the key factors for Zürich in the derby against Grasshopper.
