Match preview: Basel v Young Boys
Basel and Young Boys will clash at Leichtathletik-Stadion St. Jakob in a Super League round 28 fixture. In their previous meeting in this competition on 6th October 2024, Basel triumphed at home with a scoreline of 1-0. The historical direct confrontations favour the visiting team, which has achieved 8 wins, 5 draws, and 2 losses in the last 15 games. Their latest encounter on 30th December 2024 saw Young Boys prevail with a 3-2 victory. The home advantage may play a crucial role in this match, as Young Boys exhibit notable differences in their home and away performances.
Team analysis: Basel
With 13 wins, 7 draws, and 7 losses, the home team currently sits in 1st place, having accumulated 45 points. Their last match ended in a 1-1 draw against Luzern, following a home win over Sion with a score of 2-0. Basel’s performance has not significantly changed with the home factor, recording similar results at home and away; their last 30 matches comprised 6 wins, 6 draws, and 3 losses as visitors, scoring 38 goals and conceding 16, compared to 10 wins, 3 draws, and 2 home losses, with 30 goals scored and 11 conceded. In the league, Basel has secured 23 points from the last 30 available, registering 7 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in their last 10 home games. While not particularly solid defensively, conceding in 8 of their last 10 matches, their attack has consistently found the net, scoring in 9 of their last 10 fixtures in this competition. In 27 games, they’ve only managed to turn the score around in 3 instances when conceding first.
The Basel side has struggled to maintain their lead, which is understandable given their history in the Swiss Championship, where they have enjoyed extended periods of dominance. The team has exhibited impressive form; however, they frequently fall back into second place shortly after reaching the summit. Currently on 46 points, just 2 behind leaders Servette, Basel understands that victory is crucial for their title ambitions, especially with the invigorated Young Boys coming to visit, now just 8 points adrift of the leader.
Team analysis: Young Boys
After 11 wins, 7 draws, and 9 losses, the visiting team occupies 5th position with 40 points. In their last fixture, they won at home against Lausanne Sport by a score of 3-0, following a previous away loss to Grasshopper, where they fell 1-0. Young Boys have been affected by the home factor, showing stronger form while playing in front of their supporters; their last 30 away games resulted in 3 wins, 3 draws, and 9 losses, with 11 goals scored and 22 conceded. At home, they have achieved 10 wins, 1 draw, and 4 losses, scoring 36 goals and conceding 17. In their last 10 away matches in the league, Young Boys have recorded 2 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses, accumulating only 9 points out of a possible 30. Among their championship games, 0-0 has been the most common score at half-time, occurring in 5 of their 14 matches. In 27 games this season, they conceded the first goal 12 times and only managed to turn the score around on 2 occasions.
The Young Boys squad has not yet reached the level they showcased in the previous year, suffering occasional setbacks, such as the defeat against Grasshopper and a similar loss to Winterthur. However, their current position, only 8 points behind the leaders, provides significant motivation. Following their recent thrashing of Lausanne 3-0, Young Boys’ attacking capabilities have begun to flourish. In today’s fixture at Basel, a win not only brings three points but also narrows the gap to one of the title contenders.
The best prediction for Basel v Young Boys
Over 0.5 goal in the 1st half (guess for live bet)
Over 1.5 goals (guess for live, double or triple bet)
Over 2.5 goals (risky prediction)
