super league? Minimalist competition!

1/7
Servette defender Kevin Mbabu asks his colleagues to calm down with his gesture. In keeping with Geneva’s minimalism this season, they took second place.

Minimalism is booming as a lifestyle. More and more people are getting rid of unnecessary things to discover that they are just as happy. In terms of football, the question goes something like this: Why win 5-0 when a 1-0 brings three points?

A look at the statistics shows that minimalism also makes people happy in Super League.

Hardly any goals, poor form – but on course for Europe

Let’s take Servette as an example: after 25 match days, the Geneva team is in second place, which entitles them to qualify for the Champions League at the end of the season. A strong interim testimony.

But the numbers behind it are comparable to those of a child from the basement: Geneva has been without a win for five games. They score a meager 1.2 goals per game and in this statistic only leave the real cellar kids Winterthur and FCZ behind. And above all: Servette has a negative goal record (30:33). As the only runner-up in all top leagues in Europe!

A good horse only jumps as high as necessary! FC Winterthur thinks so too: from the 11th to the 25th matchday, the promoted team scored exactly one goal in every game. And scored 20 points. Only YB, FCZ and Lucerne were better in this period. The reward: instead of being dismissed by all experts at the start of the season as having no chance in the Super League, Winti is in 9th place, three points ahead of bottom placed Sion.

Little is needed for this YB title

On to YB: If you’re a leader and have an 18-point lead over rank 2, you might think you’d win practically every game. think! 54 points after 25 matchdays – a league-leader has only had twice less in the last ten years: 2020 YB, 2014 FC Basel. With the difference that the pursuers at the time, St. Gallen and GC, also deserved this predicate. This season, second-placed Servette’s lead over bottom-placed Sion is five points smaller than YB’s.

And then a look at Basel: FCB have won two of their six league games since Alex Frei was sacked under Heiko Vogel. A fine record. But on the one hand, it was enough to be the second best Super League team behind YB in this period. On the other hand to reduce the gap to the target 2nd place by two points.

Minimalism will go far in Super League this season. Nice for those affected, but no sign of quality for our competition.
