Lugano vs Young Boys Prediction: Both teams are in good form

This round 35 match of the Swiss Super League will take place at Cornaredo Stadium and feature Lugano taking on Young Boys. The host club comes into this match having not lost a single game in their previous eight matches, but the away team, Young Boys, had won their most recent encounter, which was against Sion.

Lugano comes into this match having just played Basel and coming off of a 1-1 draw in the Super League. During that match, Lugano controlled possession of the ball 65 percent of the time and had 13 shots on goal, with five of them finding the target. Renato Steffen was the one who put the ball in the back of the net for Lugano in the 84th minute. Five shots were taken by Basel on goal, but only one of them was on target. Andi Zeqiri scored the lone goal for Basel in the 34th minute. Lugano have been on a consistent run of goalscoring form, scoring in each of their previous six games, making them a perfect six for six in terms of finding the back of the net. During that span, they have scored 14 goals while also allowing a total of six goals to be scored against them. Taking into consideration their past performances, Lugano have failed to triumph over Young Boys in either of their previous three league matches.

Young Boys are coming into this matchup riding high after defeating Sion by a score of 0-2 in the Super League in their most recent match. During that match, Young Boys controlled 66% of the possession time and had 14 shots on goal, with 6 of those shots finding the target. Jean-Pierre Nsame was the only player for Young Boys to score in the 27th and 50th minutes. Sion had nine shots on goal, but only three of them were on target. In the previous six matches that Young Boys have participated in, there have been a total of 24 goals scored, which works out to an average of 4 goals scored per game played by them. The opposing teams have already reached seven of this grand total. Before this encounter, Young Boys had gone winless on the road in their previous two league matches.

Over the course of the last seasons, the two teams have competed against one another 32 times, with Young Boys coming out on top 20 times. There were a total of six games that were decided by a draw. Lugano had a total of 26 goals scored against them in head-to-head competition, while Young Boys had a total of 68 goals scored.

As of late, both of these teams' offenses have been doing really well, so I anticipate a good offensive play from either one of these two teams. In the meantime, given that Young Boys have the stronger team, I anticipate that they will prevail.
