FC Sion’s 0-point start continues as they face Yverdon-Sport in a friendly on July 12, 2026 – with 0 goals scored all season. The match, part of the Club Friendlies 3 series, kicks off at 15:00 and offers a rare glimpse into a team struggling to break their goal drought. Their next challenge? A home game against FC Zürich (6th in the table) on September 19 – a test that could define the season.

What’s happening in the match?

The friendly between Yverdon-Sport and FC Sion is a low-stakes but critical tune-up before the Super League resumes. For the Lions, it’s about more than just training: after a season of 0 goals (0 scored, 0 conceded), the attack must wake up. Yverdon-Sport, currently in the Challenge League, may lack the intensity of league opponents – but every chance counts.

Why does this matter for FC Sion?

0 points, 0 goals, 0 wins – FC Sion’s current Super League record is a disaster. The match against Yverdon-Sport is one of the last chances to identify offensive flaws before the September showdown with Zürich. Manager Fabio Celestini faces a simple but urgent task: turn a team that hasn’t scored since last season into a dangerous unit.

Who are the key players?

On the Sion side, Sulley Muntari and Dario Maresic could finally get on the scoresheet. Yverdon-Sport’s Sandro Bonelli has been a threat in the Challenge League, but whether the Lions can create clear chances remains an open question. Their last goal? A memory from the previous campaign.

What’s next after the match?

Following the friendly, FC Sion’s focus shifts to the Super League. With 0 points and a home game against 6th-placed FC Zürich looming, the stakes couldn’t be higher. If they fail to improve now, the fight against relegation will be a nightmare. The question is: Does this match finally spark the change – or will it be another day without a single goal?
