Grasshopper 1-4 Lugano result, stats and report

Hannes Delcroix scored a hat-trick as Lugano dismantled a shambolic Lausanne Sport side 4-0, exposing every weakness a struggling home team has been hiding in plain sight.

Grasshopper produced a clinical away performance to dismantle Luzern 5-1 at home, with Daniel Mikolajewski scoring twice and the visitors creating eight big chances in a thoroughly dominant display.

Sion ran out emphatic 5-2 winners at Grasshopper, with substitute Rilind Nivokazi scoring twice after coming on at half-time to turn a tight contest into a rout. Grasshopper had more of everything on paper but were ruthlessly punished every time they switched off.

Lugano's five-match winning run was halted as Young Boys fought back from two goals down to earn a 2-2 draw, with substitute Albian Ajeti's 80th-minute strike completing the comeback.

Samuele Bengondo's 23rd-minute finish gave Grasshopper all three points at Thun, with the visitors holding firm despite heavy home pressure and a dominant display on the ball from the hosts.

Maccabi Tel Aviv dominated nearly every department but could not find a winner, as Lugano substitute Dereck Moncada equalised in the 79th minute to earn a 1-1 draw in the UEFA Europa Conference League.

Grasshopper have conceded 13 goals in their last five Swiss Super League matches. Young Boys have scored 16 in theirs. Something has to give.

Lugano arrive at this Swiss Super League fixture with five straight wins and serious momentum. Luzern have not lost in five but have drawn three of them, and that tells you everything you need to know about who is doing what here.
