Lausanne - DWDWL

Lausanne aims for a better outcome following a 3-1 loss to Servette FC in their last Super League fixture. Despite holding 50% possession, Lausanne managed only 2 shots on target out of 10 attempts, with Simone Pafundi (25') finding the net. However, Servette capitalized with goals from Takuma Nishimura (34') and Enzo Crivelli (82', 95'). Lausanne's defense has been porous lately, conceding in all of their last six matches and allowing a total of 8 goals. Additionally, Lausanne has struggled against Young Boys, failing to win in their last 12 league encounters, although they are unbeaten in their last two home league matches.

Young Boys - DLLLW

Young Boys enter the game buoyed by a convincing 5-1 victory over Basel in their previous Super League fixture. Despite having less possession, Young Boys managed 19 shots on goal, with Joël Monteiro (2', 66'), Cedric Itten (11'), Meschak Elia (16'), and Jaouen Hadjam (46') all finding the net. However, they have shown vulnerability defensively, conceding in five of their last six matches, with opponents scoring a total of 6 goals. Nevertheless, Young Boys has a favorable record against Lausanne, remaining undefeated in their last six away league encounters, although they haven't won in their last two away league matches.

Expert Betting Tips

Young Boys have displayed inconsistent form recently, but their recent performance against Basel showcased their potential. Conversely, Lausanne's reliability is in question, particularly against a dominant Young Boys side. Despite expecting a defensive approach from the hosts, I anticipate Young Boys to breach their defense and secure a victory with at least two goals.
