Superliga matchday 3 – Sforzas FCB against Lucerna already under pressure – Sport

After the shameful end of qualifying for the Europa League against CSKA Sofia, Basel will remain in the Super League against Lucerne, a rival who did not start the season well either.

Ciriaco Sforza’s debut in Basel was not as expected: in the Super League after 2 games still without a win and the failed qualification for the Europa League with a poor performance on Thursday.

After the game, captain Valentin Stocker found clear words and criticized the composition of the squad, among other things, in conversation with the next opponent, Lucerne. Sforza responded and spoke to the veteran. The matter is resolved.

Lucerne recently strong against Basel

Now there is a duel with FC Luzern in St. Jakob-Park. Fabio Celestini’s team has been undefeated against FC Basel in 3 games (2 wins, 1 draw), but is still waiting for a win in this young Super League season.

Newcomers around Louis Schaub raise hope in Central Switzerland. The Austrian midfield director, on loan from Bundesliga Cologne, showed his talents in his first outing against Lausanne and was able to get an immediate assist.

Sporting director Remo Meyer has already found a replacement for last year’s FCL top scorer, Francesco Margiotta, who was willing to leave and was sometimes on strike. With Dejan Sorgic, a grown man returns to Lucerne. The center forward took part in the team’s training for the first time on Friday and will already be on the Lucerne squad.
