Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Uran Bislimi scored once as FC Lugano beat Basel 3-1 away in the Super League. Metinho had given Basel a 47th-minute lead, but three unanswered goals in 22 second-half minutes turned the contest decisively in Lugano's favour.

The match turned shortly after the hour mark when Yanis Cimignani, assisted by Renato Steffen, levelled in the 59th minute. Uran Bislimi then struck unassisted just two minutes later to put the visitors ahead, and Ahmed Kendouci, set up by Elias Pihlstrom, completed the scoring in the 81st minute. Basel's Xherdan Shaqiri saw yellow on 70 minutes as their early resistance dissolved.

Lugano controlled the game on the numbers, with 56% possession and 23 shots to Basel's five, while their expected goals of 1.65 dwarfed the hosts' 0.31. Bislimi was the standout, earning an 8.4 rating as a midfielder alongside his goal. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Lugano and the result confirmed it.
