Young Boys vs Lugano Prediction: League leaders won't disappoint

During this round of 21 matches in the Swiss Super League, Young Boys will be playing host to Lugano in a game that is anticipated to be a challenging contest. While the host team defeated St. Gallen in their last match, Lugano's performance against Luzern was just good enough for a draw.

Young Boys - firing Young Boys will win

After their 5-1 victory over St. Gallen in the Super League, Young Boys will be seeking to add another victory to their record. During that game, Young Boys held 45% of the possession and had 18 shots on goal, with 9 of them finding the target. Cedric Itten scored twice for Young Boys at the 12th and 54th minutes, Kastriot Imeri scored once at the 17th minute, Christian Fassnacht scored once at the 62nd minute, and Fabian Rieder scored once at the 66th minute. The Saints had 21 shots on goal, but only five were on target. St. Gallen's goal was scored by Lukas Gortler in the third minute. In recent times, there have been very few instances in which Young Boys have not given up a goal. There is evidence to suggest that Young Boys have conceded goals in five of their most recent six matches, totaling a total of five goals allowed along the way. The facts shows that Lugano has not been able to defeat Young Boys in the league in either of their previous two encounters. Moreover, Young Boys have not suffered a defeat in any of their previous 14 home league matches.

Lugano - looking for a better performance

Lugano's encounter against FC Luzern in the Super League ended in a 1-1 draw. Throughout that match, Lugano had 52% control of the ball and 17 shots on goal, with 7 of those shots finding their mark. Michael Celar was the only player who scored for Lugano in the 37th minute. Luzern, the team they were playing against, had a total of 14 shots on goal, with only three of them actually hitting the target. Asumah Abubakar scored the lone goal for FC Luzern in the sixteenth minute. Statistics show that Lugano has allowed goals in five of its last six encounters, for a total of six goals conceded in those matches. Lugano's defensive play hasn't exactly been rock-solid by any stretch of the imagination. Before this matchup, Lugano had not prevailed against BSC Young Boys when playing them away from their home venue in any of the previous 11 league contests.
