The two teams are going through a rough run of performances and need to start the new year on a good note. While Yverdon are fighting relegation, they surely can not afford to lose here. However, Zurich at home should have the higher chances, as the bookies also back them. Take a bet on Zurich winning with two goals. Also, while Yverdon have been poor offensively, I do not see them scoring here.
