Young Boys vs Lugano Prediction: a very difficult match ahead

Young Boys will host Lugano in their Super League round 8 match at home on Sunday. The host will hope to stand on their feet after falling behind league leaders, St. Gallen last week. Meanwhile, the visitors coming into this match with full confidence, will hope they get another vital win after a 2-1 win over Zurich last Saturday.

In Young Boys' last five matches, the host has lost three matches and won 2. When they played against St. Gallen last Sunday, David Wagner men received two red cards, first one for Garcia in 21 minutes before the goalscorer could not keep his cool and received a second yellow card in the 72nd minute. However, they did well not to concede as many goals with a 10man team until Guindo tucked in the first goal for St. Gallen in the 54th minute, assisted by Witzig. After being a goal down, Young Boys showed signs of being strong, getting an equalizer in the 62nd minute until Schmidt scored the winning goal for the Gallens just two minutes after Young Boys equalizer.

After a late minute goal win for Lugano last week, they will come into this match, hoping to get a win against a struggling Young Boys. In their last five matches, Lugano has won three matches and lost two. Despite having a very good attacking side, as they have shown in their last five matches by scoring in each contest, The defensive play of Lugano has been so poor. Therefore, the side will have to improve their defense to limit the rate at which they concede goals. We hope this side will give the host a difficult match.

Looking at their last five matches together, the outcome has been in favor of Young Boys with three wins and Lugano having two wins. In three of those five matches, both teams scored while also having four matches ending in an over 2.5. However, while relying on goals, we will tip Young Boys to score over 2 goals.
