Young Boys vs Lugano Prediction: Bet on goals in this contest

This seventh-round competition of the Swiss Super League will take place at Wankdorf Stadium, and it will feature Young Boys taking on Lugano. The home team came into this match having just suffered a defeat to Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League, whereas Lugano's most recent match was a goalless draw with Bodo/Glimt.

After suffering a defeat to RB Leipzig by a score of 1-3 in their most recent Champions League match, Young Boys will be hoping to have better luck this time around. During that encounter, Young Boys had possession of the ball for 55% of the time and had 8 shots on goal, with 3 of them finding the target. Meschak Elia was the only player for Young Boys to get their name on the scoresheet, and he did it in the 33rd minute. RB Leipzig, the team they were playing against, had 21 shots on goal, with 9 of them landing on target. Mohamed Simakan scored RB Leipzig's goals in the third, Xaver Schlager in the seventy-third, and Benjamin Sesko in the ninetieth minute. Young Boys have been performing well defensively as of late, as seen by the fact that only three goals have been scored against them in their previous six matches across all competitions. When looking at the facts before the match, it is clear that Young Boys had not beaten Lugano in either of their previous two league encounters. Additionally, they have not suffered a defeat in any of their previous 24 league matches played at home.

Lugano's previous match, which was played against Bodo/Glimt in the Conference League, ended in a scoreless draw. In the previous six matches that Lugano have participated in, there have been a total of 25 goals scored, which results in a mean average of 4.17 goals being scored in each contest. This demonstrates the team's propensity for engaging contests. Seven of those goals, however, have been scored by opposing teams. The form guide for the league shows that Lugano have not been victorious over Young Boys in any of the previous 12 matches that have taken place away from their home stadium. Additionally, in the most recent two league matches played outside of their home stadium, they have failed to win.

In the previous seasons, Young Boys and Lugano have competed against one another, with Young Boys coming out on top 21 times and Lugano coming out on top 7 times. There were a total of six games that ended in draws. In the head-to-head matchups between the two teams, Young Boys scored 71 goals, while Lugano only managed to score 30 goals.

My analysis suggests that Lugano have the potential to score a goal against this Young Boys team, but the likelihood of them doing so is far lower than the likelihood that Young Boys will score against them. As a result, I anticipate a close game, with BSC Young Boys ultimately emerging victorious in a competitive contest with a score of 2-1 at the game's conclusion.
