Cham's record is more modest but steady for their level: 10 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses from 20 matches, mostly in the Promotion League. They've won three of their last five, including a comfortable 4-0 over Zürich II, but they were beaten 5-0 by Brühl back in April and lost at Kreuzlingen in August.

The level difference between the sides is clear from these numbers, but Sion haven't always defended tidily even against weaker opposition.

Comparative Team Statistics: Cham vs FC Sion

What kind of game can we expect?

Cup ties like this often come down to how seriously the bigger side treats the occasion. Sion have been juggling a busy calendar of league, cup and European commitments, and their away form shows some defensive inconsistency along the way.

Cham will have the shorter trip and, in theory, fresher legs, but stepping up two divisions is still a big ask. Their home form in the Promotion League has been solid without being spectacular, and they'll need a big performance to trouble a side with this much attacking output.
