Lausanne vs Yverdon Prediction: Both sides seeks their first league win

As part of the third week of Swiss Super League action, the match between Lausanne and Yverdon will take place at the Stade de la Tuilière. The home team is currently in eighth place, while the away team is in tenth place after taking just one point from their first two matches of the season. Both of these teams were promoted to the Super League during the previous season.

Lausanne - LDWLD

Lausanne's return to the top division got off to a rocky start because on the opening matchday they were matched up against Young Boys, who were the reigning champions. Despite putting on a great effort, Lausanne still ended up suffering their first loss of the season in this match. Nevertheless, their play in the game was commendable, as they were able to keep the champions tied at 1-1 for the whole match's first ninety minutes before giving up a penalty in the final minute of extra time, which Cedric Itten converted to win the game for Young Boys. Ludovic Magnin, in his playing days, was a defender, so it should come as no surprise that his team is built on the cornerstone of a strong defense. This defense helped the team maintain the best record in the Challenge League the previous season, conceding just 43 goals, which was 10 fewer than any other team. They played the Grasshoppers last week and collected their first point in a 1-1 draw. They will be looking forward to this clash because they prevailed over this opponent in both of their matches played at this site during the previous season. The away team finished on top of the Challenge League the previous year with a record of 20 wins, six ties, and 10 losses.

Yverdon - LWLLD

Yverdon-Sport's first game of the season was against FC Zurich, who were defending league champions in the 2021–22 season. Yverdon-Sport was outplayed for most of the match, and they ultimately fell by a score of 2-0. In spite of this, they were able to pull off what was undoubtedly the biggest upset of the weekend the week before by playing Young Boys to a 2-2 draw after falling behind twice over the course of the game thanks to goals scored by Varol Tasar and Evans Maurin. Despite the fact that Marco Schallibaum's team won the Challenge League the previous year, their away record was not very impressive, earning only 29 points out of a possible 54 on the road. Although they were defeated in both of their away matches against this opponent in the previous season, the visitors will be coming into this game with a lot more confidence after their 2-2 draw against the defending champions last week. With some of the larger teams struggling in the early stages of the competition, a win here could see them move into the top half of the table in these crucial early stages of the new season.

In spite of the fact that the visitors won the Challenge League the previous year, they were unable to prevail against this rival on the opponent's home turf. The home team gave a strong performance the week before against the Grasshoppers, and seeing as how they are going up against an opponent they have faced before, we believe they will be able to pull out a close victory.
