They are averaging 2.00 goals per game — a high-scoring output that makes them a genuine attacking threat in any fixture. Defensively, conceding just 0.60 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches.

FC Sion's home record at Stade de Tourbillon: 6W 4D 0L from 10 Super League appearances (2.20 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.60 goals scored and 0.40 conceded per game. 6 clean sheets from 10 home games (60%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at Stade de Tourbillon.

FC Thun have collected 1.60 PPG across 10 Super League outings this season: 5W 1D 4L. Last five: L L W L L. They are scoring at 1.90 per game and conceding 1.30. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.

FC Thun away from home this season: 6W 0D 4L from 10 away games — 1.80 PPG on the road. They are averaging 2.00 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. Both teams have scored in 80% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.

Form favours the hosts. FC Sion's 2.10 PPG return is 0.50 points per game ahead of FC Thun's 1.60 — a genuine gap in recent results that provides a statistically grounded case for backing the home side.

Head-to-Head

FC Thun hold the superior head-to-head record in this fixture, claiming 3 wins from 3 meetings. The hosts have won just 0 times in that span.

Scoring has been limited when these teams have met. The 3 previous contests averaged 1.7 goals, making the Under 2.5 the historically backed angle in the goals market. The most recent clash, on 15 Feb 2026, ended 0–1 with FC Thun winning.

It is worth noting that FC Thun have a superior record in this fixture despite their visitor status — 3 wins from 3 meetings. Home advantage alone is not a sufficient reason to dismiss that track record.

Trading

FC Sion half-time and goal-timing data (35 games, 17 at home): they score before half-time in 71% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 56% of the time; BTTS occurs in 35% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 29% of games (home games); they keep a clean sheet 40% of the time.

FC Thun half-time and goal-timing data (35 games, 17 at away): they score before half-time in 76% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 50% of those occasions; they lead at the break 46% of the time; BTTS occurs in 71% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 82% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 43%.

From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — FC Sion 49% and FC Thun 71% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (FC Sion 46% | FC Thun 77%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects FC Sion 1.34 xG and FC Thun 1.02 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: FC Sion attack 0.923 / defence 0.658 | FC Thun attack 1.082 / defence 0.849. League average goals — home 1.709 / away 1.428. FC Sion's defence rating of 0.658 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 66 FC Sion games / 33 FC Thun games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: FC Sion 42% | Draw 33% | FC Thun 26%. Fair-value odds: FC Sion 2.38 | Draw 3.03 | FC Thun 3.85. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 33% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 42% | BTTS probability 50% | Total xG 2.36. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 58% — total xG of 2.36 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 50% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Verdict

FC Thun lead the H2H ledger, but FC Sion carry stronger current form — do not let history alone dictate your assessment.

The Poisson model's primary lean is FC Sion at 42% — marginal model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 33% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on FC Sion if the outright odds are short.

The Poisson model projects 2.36 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 42% — reasonable confidence, supported by H2H averaging 1.7 goals per meeting.

Poisson assigns a 50% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. This conflicts with form data: FC Sion 40% | FC Thun 80% from recent games — a notable divergence.
