Fc thun on brink of swiss title

FC Thun is on the cusp of winning the Swiss Super League title after a 3-1 victory over FC Basel left them 14 points clear of second place. The Bernese Oberlanders now need just two more points to secure the championship, with five games remaining in the season.

Thun can clinch title at home

The opportunity to seal the title at home could arise this weekend when FC Lugano visit Thun. Thun has already lost twice to Lugano this season, but even a third defeat would not necessarily deny them the title. If FC St.Gallen fails to beat BSC Young Boys in their Sunday match, Thun would become champions regardless of the Lugano result.

Thun's coach, Rastoder, scored the crucial third goal in Saturday's win over Basel, while Claudio De Capitani had opened the scoring. With only five games left, Thun appears poised to make history and claim their first-ever Swiss league title.
