Player to Watch – Jonathan Okita
Jonathan Okita has scored nine times in the Super League this season making him Zurich’s leading marksman in the division. The 27-year-old was among the goal scorers when Zurich drew 2-2 with Basel in September and the wide attacker has the skills to make a similar impact on Sunday.
