Percentiles from 0 to 100: 90 means better than 90% of clubs in the league, or in the world. Higher means more of that quality. The profile describes the club. It is not part of the score. Missing bars mean there is not enough data yet. How the profile works.

This season they are taking 2.27 points a game from 11 matches, while their performances have been worth 1.90. That is 4.1 points more than the football deserved, which our model calls lucky. Their opponents this season have averaged a rating of 1230, an easier schedule than the Swiss Super League average.

For context, the next club above them in the Swiss Super League is Lugano, rated 1441, and the next one below is Sion, rated 1363. The gap to the strongest side in the division, Lugano, is 12 rating points.

Compared with the rest of their league, their style stands out for very high dribbling.

On rating, they play like a tier-2 side, 1 tier above the level of their own league.

The Swiss Super League itself is 25th in our world league ranking, where its average club is 1.30 goals per 90 worse than the top-five average.

How sure are we? Confidence in this rating is high: the range of 90th to 274th is where the club's true world rank sits four times in five. Results to 25 Oct 2026.
