Servette who finished second in the Swiss Super League last season host title holders BSC Young Boys in an exciting tie this coming game week.

Match result prediction: BSC Young Boys to win

For our first prediction we hear at Football Ground Guide have gone with a win for the away side. Servette who finished second in the Swiss Super League last season have had a somewhat slow start to this years campaign, that could be excused for their current exploits in Europe having already played four games in Europe against Genk and Scottish side Rangers. Their opponents Young Boys come in to this game with just one defeat in their last 14 games in all competitions and going by recent head to head record, Young Boys have won three of the last five meetings, the most recent being a 6-1 win in April.

Total goals prediction: Over 2.5 goals

In their opening games of this season both sides have been involved in 33 goals all together with Servette scoring 8 and conceding 9 whilst Young Boys have scored 10, only behind FC Zurich who have 11, and have conceded 6 goals. 8 of the last 10 meetings have ended up with 2.5 goals or more with the two games that did not give up 2.5 goals being a 0-0 draw in November 2022 and a 1-0 win for Servette in March 2022.

Correct score prediction: 3-1 to Young Boys

Two of Young Boys' three games previous to this meeting has seen them score at least three goals so we believe that Young Boys will win this game 3-1. Servette come in to this game with the fourth worst defence our of the 12 teams in the Swiss Super League so far whilst Young Boys' confidence will be high after going unbeaten so far this season.
