Oberthurgau — Franches-Montagnes: 2:5, MySports League

Franches-Montagne saw off Oberthurgau 5:2 in the MySports League on October 3rd, a result that leaves the visitors six points clear of the bottom while the hosts remain rooted at the foot of the table with zero points from five games.

The away side took control early and never looked back, turning their recent form into a comfortable victory. To be fair, they'd shown flashes of promise before — a 5:4 win over Liss and a 5:0 against Bülach — but this was the clean performance they'd been building toward.

We'd tipped the away win at 69 percent confidence, and the match played out exactly as we expected. Oberthurgau had nothing to do all evening, while Franches-Montagne's attack found rhythm from the opening exchanges.

The home side's run of defeats stretches to five now, including heavy losses against Zeven and Frauenfeld. By then it was clear they were struggling to find any foothold in this league.

Franches-Montagne sit sixth after five games, three wins and two losses. The gap to the teams above them remains tight, but beating a winless opposition is exactly the kind of result you need to keep momentum.

Oberthurgau's goal difference sits at minus twenty-one after five matches, and they face a long haul before they can turn things around.
