Zurich vs Young Boys Prediction & Betting tips
“The games must go on”. What was already valid in 1972 at the Olympic Games in Munich can currently be transferred to the Swiss Super League. The bad news about infected players doesn’t stop. Most FC Zurich professionals were in a ten-day isolation period that ended on Friday and have to face the young boys again on Saturday.
This quarantine could have cost FCZ participation in the European Cup. In the Super League table, Zurich are currently sixth with 42 points. Three points, but 29 goals, are missing for fourth place, which is enough for the Europa League. After all, Ludovic Magnin’s team has one more game to complete than the competition.
The question remains how well the players survived the isolation without team training when the champion competes in the Letzigrund on Saturday. The Young Boys, on the other hand, are in a head-to-head race for the title with FC St. Gallen. At first glance, everything indicates that only one prediction of an away win can fit between FC Zurich and the Young Boys.
Maybe the last few days have also welded the FCZ together. A now-only-right mentality can be expected. Nevertheless, the Zurich residents are probably missing some players, so the starting situation before the match on Saturday indicates a distortion of competition. Few think about giving a tip on the home side between FC Zurich and the Young Boys.
FC Zurich:
The Swiss football association should actually be grateful to FC Zurich that the game was played at FC Basel during the week, in which the city of Zurich set up a team of a few remaining professionals as well as players from the U21 and U18. There is no gratitude, however, because the association opposed an application to relocate the game against the Young Boys.
So the FCZ will probably start again with more professionals, but after ten days of isolation one can only speculate about their physical condition. Coach Ludovic Magnin takes it sporty, he can not change anything in the current situation anyway. After seven points from the last three home games, the coach relies on the Letzigrund fortress.
The Tuesday encounter in Basel was a pattern of no value. Many bookmakers did not offer any betting odds for this match. The city of Zurich, however, fought back with their hands and feet. In the end, the result was a 0: 4, which had been expected and shows that between these two conditions, FC Zurich and the Young Boys are probably only the odds for the guests.
It is clear that Ludovic Magnin, who was only allowed to watch the game in Basel on domestic TV, is back in the stadium. There is even hope that the six positively tested players around Mirlind Kryeziu could slip back into the squad. Perhaps there will still be a gap in the direction of a FCZ point win.
Young boys:
The Young Boys don’t really feel well in their skin when they have to compete in Zurich on Saturday. A certain fear cannot be hidden. It is not out of the question that you will feel this uncertainty on the lawn, especially since the reigning champion does not like to leave the domestic realms anyway.
Should Gerardo Seoane’s team lose the title this season, then that is solely due to the weak away record. The Bernese have not won in the Super League abroad for eight games. Under these circumstances, a prognosis for a point win by the home side is not so far-fetched between FC Zurich and the Young Boys.
On Wednesday, the capitals at home had a long time against Servette Geneva. After the deficit, Christian Fassnacht, Christopher Martins Pereira and Meschak Elia YBB made it 3-1, but after the goal, the tremors started again. Only with 4: 2 in added time did Jean-Pierre Nsame redeem the Bernese.
In addition, the victory was bought dearly, because captain Fabian Lustenberger will be missing injured in Zurich. Frederik Sörensen is another central defender. Linus Oberexer, Sandro Lauper, Esteban Petignat and Guillaume Hoarau complete the hospital. Nevertheless, the odds comparison of the betting base YBB shows as a clear favorite in the Letzigrund.
On Saturday we will face Zurich. Certain players have a bad feeling if you do not know whether there is a risk of infection or not.
