Zurich vs Young Boys Prediction: Visiting side to end Zurich dominance

Letzigrund will host this championship group game between Zurich and Young Boys in the Swiss Super League. Let’s preview this game and make a prediction.

Zurich are coming off a 0-1 defeat at the hands of St. Gallen. However, that will be their consecutive league defeat, as they also lost to Lausanne 1-0 in a prior game to that last game. In the meantime, prior games to those losses did see Zurich go a three-game unbeaten run, winning against Servette, while they drew Basel, Lausanne Ouchy and Winterthur. In the league's championship group, Zurich is seated in last place with 48 points, coming from 33 league games.

Young Boys defeated Winterthur on the road last time, a game that ended 1-2. In that game, Joel Monteiro and Lukasz Lakomy scored Young Boy's goals. However, with that win, Young Boys have gone unbeaten in as many as five games, with three wins and two draws. In the league this season, Young Boys have accumulated 65 points from 33 points and are six points clear of closest rivals, Lugano.

The last matches between these sides ended with a zero win for Young Boys, while the last two games ended in wins for Zurich. However, four consecutive encounters ended in draws. Zurich scored seven goals in those matches, while Young Boys scored four.

Zurich have had the best results in this fixture since late 2022, and they will hope to win here again. However, compared to the Young Boys that played in that span, we are witnessing one of the best performances of this side, and we can expect them to step up. However, this game is not expected to be easy for either side, but Young Boys are expected to get things their way in a game that should end with few goals.
