Young Boys vs Grasshoppers Prediction & Betting tips
This Sunday, the Young Boys receive the Grasshoppers in Bern. As early as December, the Zurich residents were guests in the capital. In this game, the two teams parted with a 1: 1. For today’s game we expect a different outcome. The betting odds also see the Bernese as a clear favorite. After all, the Young Boys have won the last seven games. At home in Stade de Suisse, the balance sheet looks even better. Thun won as the first and only team of the Super League in the federal city, this game is almost half a year ago! The situation is different with the Hoppers. The Zurich are currently only in seventh place. In addition, GC retired in the semifinals of the Cup. Thus, the home team is clearly favored, after all, meets the offensive of the Bernese constantly in every game.
Young Boys:
Twelve laps to go, the Bernese Young Boys are at the top of the Swiss league. The Hauptstädter have already 14 points ahead of the pursuer from Basel, where the reigning champions has played two games less. Nevertheless, it looks like that at the end of this season, the Bernese are at the top. Especially at home, the Bernese are outstanding! In twelve home games, the Young Boys scored 31 points. Only Thun FC scored three points in the Stade de Suisse. In this game, the Bernese played miserable and collected a 0: 4-Klatsche.Der today’s opponent also earned a point in Bern. In the ten victorious games, the Berner achieved a goal balance of 31: 5! Not surprisingly, the Young Boys have the best offensive in the league. On average, the fans celebrate just under 2.5 goals per game. Impressive is the scorers list: The top three scorers in the league all wear the yellow and black jersey. Sulejmani (ten goals and four assists), Assale (ten goals and six assists) and Nsame (ten goals and four assists) all contributed more than half of all YB goals. The top scorer last season met so far only seven times on the net. Guillaume Hoarau lacked 16 games this season. Only in the winter break, he returned to its old strength and proved it impressively in the second half. In the five games in 2018, he scored seven goals! The question is whether the Frenchman will play in today’s game. After all, the former PSG striker is often spared. In addition, Adi Hütter can currently draw on the full and has four goalscoring striker to choose from.
Grasshoppers:
In the second half, the Zurich have not convince, only two of six games won GC. In the first game in 2018, the Hoppers distanced the FC Sion. This was not a particularly difficult undertaking, because the Wallis occupy the last place in the table and are highly relegated. GC also scored three points in the Zurich derby, although FC Zurich were the better team. This fact became clear in the Cup semi-final. Also in this derby the Grasshoppers went early in the lead. However, the city Zurich took advantage of their chances and turned the game to the final score of 2: 1 – where the decisive goal fell in stoppage time. With this defeat, the Hoppers gambled the last chance for a title this year. For in the championship, the Zurich fight only for fourth place and thus to qualify for the Europa League. Currently, however, four teams have this goal. Lugano, Lucerne and GC all have 31 points on their account – only FC Zurich have one point more. Thus, an interesting final phase in the midfield of the league can be expected.
Main problem for the bad situation of the Zurich is the offensive. Only 31 goals scored the team in 24 season games. Andersen is GC’s top scorer with four goals scored. This makes clear which problem Yakin has to solve. In today’s game, he can not follow this from the sidelines – in the game against Lausanne Yakin was relegated to the stands and received several game suspension. After this round, the Zurich will still be in seventh place, the team of GC will compete the journey home from Bern without points in the backpack.
