Prediction published on 10/08/2024, 06:12  by Daniel Ngulu in Football Predictions

Swiss champions Young Boys will be eyeing a first win of the season when they travel to Yverdon Sport on Saturday. This match finds Young Boys bottom of the standings, tied at one point with their hosts. Read on for our preview and a prediction of this match.

Having finished 10th in the regular season in 2023/24, Yverdon played in the relegation round and only managed to finish third. They arrive for this match placed 10th and seeking their first win of the season.

After losing their opening two matches of this campaign, Yverdon had a more positive outcome last time out. They played to a 0-0 draw with Winterthur, keeping their first clean sheet of the campaign but failing to score in the second of three games. Their bad start this season leaves them with only one win in seven league matches. In 19 away league matches, they have no win.

Young Boys will want to view themselves as favorites here, but in their three meetings with Yverdon last season, they won just once. Their two visits to Yverdon Sport ended in draws. That run should worry the champions, whose title defence hasn’t started in the best way.

Young Boys have failed to win any of their opening four matches. They conceded late against Zurich in their last game, denying them what seemed to be heading to a first win of the season. That match at home finished 2-2 meaning they’ve conceded more than a goal in each of their four matches.

While the champions will be happy at their performance in attack, failing to score just once, they’ve been poor defensively. The 11 goals conceded so far is the highest in the league.
