Sion 4-0 BATE result, stats and report

A VAR-assisted red card for Zürich's Fodé Sylla at 27 minutes shaped this Swiss Super League draw, with both goals coming from the spot and Sion left frustrated after four straight wins.

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.

Sion came to St. Gallen and did what good sides do. They competed harder, created more, and punished a home team that had no answer for the basics.

Ajax put Sion to the sword with a dominant 5-3 victory in the UEFA Europa Conference League, with Tolu Arokodare netting twice and Winsley Boteli completing a hat-trick for the Swiss side in a match that had everything except defensive competence.

Sion controlled possession, created more chances, and had nearly three times as many shots as Lugano, but Lugano won 2-1 in the Swiss Super League thanks to a third-minute header and a late Beckham Castro strike that settled the argument.

Sion ground out a dramatic 3-2 victory over Thun in the Swiss Super League, with substitute Josias Lukembila scoring in the fourth minute of stoppage time to settle a match that Thun had threatened to steal despite finishing with ten men.

Servette arrive at this fixture having lost three of their last five Swiss Super League matches and keeping zero clean sheets in that run. Sion have won four of their last five and are not coming to make up the numbers.

Sion host a Zürich side that has taken one point from seven away matches this season, making Saturday's trip to the Valais a fixture that could define the early trajectory of both clubs' campaigns.
