- In the semifinals of the Swiss Cup, there is a Super League duel between FC Lugano and defending champion Lucerne.
- In the other duel, Yverdon from the Challenge League and last year’s finalist St. Gallen are fighting for the final.
- The semi-finals will take place between April 19th and 21st. The exact opening times are not yet known.
- The final will take place on May 15th at the Wankdorf Stadium in Bern.
After the draw for the semi-finals, it is still possible that the two same teams as in the previous year will only contest the final for the second time since 1973 (then Basel and Zurich). The draw by “Lucky Fairy” and SRF expert Kay Voser has shown that defending champion Lucerne and the defeated finalist St. Gallen will avoid each other in the semifinals.
FCL vs. FCL: Reprise of the Quarterfinals 2021
Nevertheless, there is a reprise in the semi-finals: the duel between FC Lugano and FC Luzern took place in the quarter-finals last year. The eventual champion from central Switzerland won 2-1 after extra time.
Yverdon like 21 years ago?
Meanwhile, the surprise team from Yverdon is in the semi-finals of the Swiss Cup for the first time since 2001. At that time, the path even led to the final, where Servette should have the upper hand (0:3). In order to repeat the coup, the team of coach Uli Forte with FC St. Gallen has to beat the 3rd team from the Super League in a row. As a lower class, the club from the Challenge League has home rights anyway.
For the eastern Swiss, on the other hand, there is another long journey ahead. After Geneva (Chênois), Chiasso and again Geneva (Carouge), the Zeidler team now has to travel to Vaud in mid-April.
3 dates for 2 games
The dates for hosting the semi-finals were scheduled between April 19th and 21st. Due to the still uncertain corona situation, the association has calculated an additional day as a precaution. When which duel takes place will be communicated at a later date.
