Swiss Super League 2026 season opener – expanded results

Entities: FC Vaduz · FC Lausanne‑Sport · FC Lugano · Grasshopper Club Zürich · Ibrahim Bah Mendes

Overview

The opening round of the 2026 Swiss Super League produced a mix of victories, a draw and a narrow defeat. FC Basel edged Servette FC 1‑0 through a Timothé Cognat strike in the 43rd minute; Basel’s coach Jocelyn Gourvennec praised his side’s dominance but complained about a lack of realism in front of goal, while Cognat, whose future remains uncertain, acknowledged the need for improvement.

Thun rallied from an early deficit to beat Luzern 3‑1, keeping their title defence alive and setting up a Champions League second‑leg against Dinamo Zagreb.

League leaders FC Lugano secured a 2‑1 win over FC Vaduz, with Antonios Papadopoulos and Lukas Mai scoring before a red card for defender Schaffran sealed Vaduz’s fate. About 6,950 fans attended.

In Zurich, FC Lausanne‑Sport drew 1‑1 with Grasshopper Club Zürich after debutant Ibrahim Bah Mendes gave Lausanne the lead, only for Grasshopper to equalise late, leaving both sides without a win despite numerous chances.
