After a 1-1 tie with FC Sion in the Super League, BSC Young Boys will play in this match. BSC Young Boys controlled 63% of the ball and had 24 shots (with 5 on target) in that game. Jean-Pierre Nsame (64') scored the winning goal for BSC Young Boys. Sion countered with 11 shots, five of which were on target. FC Sion's Mario Balotelli scored in the 53rd minute. The BSC Young Boys' recent scorelines reflect the team's monumental defensive efforts. The number of goals scored against BSC Young Boys in their net throughout their last six matches is just four. This trend may not be maintained in the upcoming game, though. BSC Young Boys have yet to be defeated by FC Basel 1893 in the league in their previous nine meetings. In their last 10 league matches played at home, Young Boys have not been defeated.

FC Basel 1893 and Zalgiris Vilnius played to a 2-2 draw in their previous Conference League match. In the first minute, Andy Diouf scored for FC Basel 1893, and in the seventeenth minute, Andi Zeqiri tallied. Both of Zalgiris Vilnius' goals were scored by Mathias Oyewusi (in the 42nd and 62nd minutes). Alex Frei's FC Basel 1893 have scored 8 goals in their previous 6 matches, good for an average of 1.33 goals per game. FC Basel 1893 has failed to win any of their last 12 league matches played away from home against BSC Young Boys. A dismal streak of away performances. Also, Basel has lost their last three league games on the road.

This will be a tough encounter with either team having a high chance of winning. Analyzing their strong squad and previous matches history, bet on both teams to score.
