Luzern vs Young Boys Prediction: Luzern to hold the visiting Young Boys once again

At Swissporarena, Luzern will play Young Boys in round 32 of the Swiss Super League. The two teams could not win their last league game and will hope for a positive outcome here. Which team takes its chances? Below, I preview this game and offer predictions.

Luzern

Luzern played Grasshoppers the previous weekend and they ended on the losing end. In a disappointing 3-1 contest, this team went behind before the break, but they levelled just nine minutes after the second half kickoff. However, goals from Bojang in the second half were enough to see their opponent take maximum points. In the meantime, prior encounters to that defeat saw Luzern go on an unbeaten three matches, picking two wins and drawing one. With 48 points from 31 matches, Young Boys sit in 4th place in the standings, scoring 55 goals and conceding 49.

Young Boys

Young Boys were unlucky the previous weekend and could only take a point against Yverdon last weekend. In that encounter, Young Boys had 57 per percent of the possession and attempted 25 shots with seven on target. However, while they went behind before the break, Christian Fassnacht's strike in the 60th minute was able to level the score but they could not take all three points at full time. In the meantime, Young Boys have gone unbeaten in five consecutive matches. In that run, Young Boys picked up wins over Lausanne, Basel, St. Gallen and Servette. This season, Young Boys have 50 points from 31 matches, positioning them in the third spot.

Head-to-Head Statistics

The last meetings between these sides have ended in two draws, ending in an identical 1-1 score. In other matches, Young Boys win three, as Luzern's last victory was in 2020. In recent matches, we have witnessed both teams scoring.

Expert Betting Tips

After an incredible run and dropping points the last weekend, I feel the same might happen for Young Boys again despite their good record in this fixture. While Luzern have struggled with consistency, their home record since the start of the year is just too good that I feel they might extend that. While both teams are solid sides offensively, I believe they will have their chances with a lot of attacking intent at halftime. Yet, I do not see Young Boys at least closing the league gaps here.
