Currently sitting in 7th position, Lausanne has accumulated 44 points, with a record of 12 wins, 8 draws, and 12 losses. In their penultimate match, they secured a home win against Sion (2-0), but in their latest outing, they suffered a loss on the road to Winterthur (1-0). This team has shown resilience away from home, registering similar results both at home and on the road. In the last 30 matches, Lausanne has recorded 5 wins, 6 draws, and 4 losses away, scoring 25 goals and conceding 19. At home, they counter with 8 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses, with a tally of 29 goals scored and only 14 conceded. Over their last 10 home matches in the league, Lausanne has acquired 17 points from a possible 30, with their defensive line having leaked goals in 8 of these games. However, they have shown a consistent attacking prowess, having found the net in 7 of their last 10 league fixtures. Out of 32 matches in this season, Lausanne conceded the first goal 14 times and were unable to make a comeback on those occasions.
Lausanne still harbours hopes of climbing to 6th place, particularly as Zürich experienced a heavy defeat (0-4) against Basel in their last fixture. Thus, while their defeat at Winterthur was disappointing, they remain in contention for a playoff spot. To achieve this, they must win against Lugano and hope for Zürich to falter once more. Although it seems challenging, the possibility is still alive. However, Lausanne’s recent performance has been underwhelming, managing just 1 victory—against Sion—in their last 5 matches. Their home form is also concerning, featuring only 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses of late.
