How promoted Thun have taken charge of the Swiss Super League

Promoted this season and operating with the Swiss Super League’s smallest wage bill, Thun are 14 points clear after 29 matches.

According to L'Équipe, French forward Brighton Labeau, one of two French players in the squad, discusses the factors behind this unexpected surge in a video interview.

This campaign increasingly resembles one of the biggest shocks in European football, with a club from a city of 45,000 establishing a commanding lead.

In a league usually dominated by Basel, Young Boys or Zurich, Thun’s rise stands out as a major anomaly.

The title is not yet secured because of the competition format. After 33 rounds, the top six play each other once more, and points from those five additional matches are added to the standings. Thun could still be crowned before those play-offs, which would only deepen the sense of history.
