2020/2021 Swiss RSL

First round is this weekend.

My prognostication for the final results.

YB - but not by much
Basel
FCSG
Servette
LS
FCZ
Luzern
Vauz
Sion
Lugano

19 Sep
Lugano - Luzern
YB - FCZ

20 Sep
Basel - Vaduz
LS - Servette - Should be an interesting way to start the season.
FCSG - Sion

 

Here is an interesting comparison of season tickets for the Swiss Romand teams:











Those are some expensive tickets for Xamax for the adults. Servette Family Season tickets are a pretty good deal.

 

A few guesses for this season.

 

I am sorry that I missed a few weeks.

FCSG 6
LS 4
Lugano 4
YB 4
Servette 3
FCZ 1
Luzern 1
Vaduz 1
Basel 1
Sion 1

3 Oct
LS - FCZ
Lugano - Sion

4 Oct
Basel - Luzern
FCSG - Servette
YB - Vaduz

As an aside, Servette is authorized to have 18k in the stadium. Too bad they never get close to that number.

 

Wow, I have not updated this in a while. I am sorry.

2 Dec
LS - Vauduz 3-0
Luzern - Sion 2-0
Servette - FCZ 2-1

5 Dec
FCSG - Vaduz - Ppd.
Basel - Servette 1-0

6 Dec
FCZ - LS 4-0
Luzern - YB 2-3
Sion - Lugano Ppd.

So the standings as they are look like this, the * will say how many games in hand they have, the most that has been played in 10 by LS and Luzern.

YB 21 *
Lugano 16 **
FCZ 14 *
Basel 13 *
FCSG 12
Luzern 9
Servette 8*
Sion 7 **
Vaduz 6**

Servette gets Gaël Clichy for their matches this week.


9 Dec
Basel - Sion
Vaduz - Servette
FCZ - FCSG

12 Dec
Lugano - FCZ
Vaduz - Basel

13 Dec
LS - FCSG
Sion - Luzern
YB - Servette

 

So, I apologize again for being so tardy in updating this:

YB 54
Servette 37
Basel 36
FCZ 33
Lugano 33
FCSG 32
Luzern 31
LS 31
Sion 25
Vaduz 23

Outside of YB, who has been good, the rest of the league has been really so-so this season. Servette has gotten hot these past few rounds and moved into 2nd place. But with 2nd place and 8th only separated by 6 points, that shows a lack of real ability to challenge YB.

Also, Sion has been really bad this season.

20 March
LS - FCSG
Lugano - Basel

21 March
Luzern - Sion
Servette - Vaduz
YB - FCZ

Servette could have a 4 point gap over Basel for 2nd place by the end of the weekend. YB could have a 20 point gap over 2nd place as well by the end of the week!

 

In a strange season:
1. YB 72 - Won the title again.
2. Basel 47
3. Servette 47
4. Lugano 43
5. Luzern 42
6. Lausanne 42
7. FCZ 38
8. FCSG 37
9. Vaduz 33
10. Sion 31

Odd season, YB runs away again, but the rest are very even. Sion has looked very poor all season, but could manage to avoid relegation is they somehow gain points in the last few matches.

Matches that remain
YB - vs Basel, @ Vaduz, vs Luzern, @ LS
Basel - vs YB, vs Lugano, vs FCZ, @ Sion
Servette - @ Luzern, vs LS, @ Vaduz, vs FCSG
Lugano - vs Vaduz, @ Basel, vs Sion, @ Luzern
Luzern - vs Servette, vs Sion, @ YB, vs Lugano
LS - vs FCZ, @ Servette, @ FCSG, vs YB
FCZ - @ LS, @ FCSG, @ Basel, vs Vaduz
FCSG - vs Sion, vs FCZ, vs LS, @ Servette
Vaduz - @ Lugano, vs YB, vs Servette, @ FCZ
Sion - @ FCSG, @ Luzern, @ Lugano, vs Basel

Sion has a very difficult last 4 matches.
