Lugano will be looking to end their run of four matches without a win in the Swiss Super League when they host Thun in the opening match of the 2025–26 campaign.
The hosts have been in the top flight of Swiss football since the 2015–16 season. Their best finish in the last ten campaigns came in 2023–24, when they finished second. However, Mattia Croci-Torti’s team were unable to build on this success and challenge for the league title last season, ultimately finishing fourth and reaching the round of 16 in the Conference.
Thun meanwhile ended their five-year stay in the second tier by winning the Swiss Challenge League title. The visitors finished eleven points above their nearest rivals, FC Aarau, and also had the best defence. However, their fans will be concerned ahead of the new season and the trip to the Cornaredo Stadium by the fact that they came second in terms of away form.
FC Lugano vs FC Thun Betting Tips: Under 3.5 goals
Lugano kept a clean sheet in each of their last two matches, with just one of their last six producing more than three goals. They are hosting a Thun side that has kept a clean sheet in five of their last nine matches.
The last time these two teams met, seven goals were scored, but that match wasn't played at this venue. The last two matches at the Cornaredo Stadium both ended with fewer than 2.5 goals, and I don’t think this weekend's game will be any different.
- Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

FC Lugano team news
Ahmed Benkoudi remains unavailable to FC Lugano head coach Mattia Croci-Torti due to a leg injury, but he is the hosts’ only injury concern.
There are not expected to be many changes to the side that started the goalless draw against CFR Cluj in midweek, although Mattia Bottani could be introduced in midfield.
