Sion will welcome Young Boys to Stade de Tourbillon in the Swiss Super League on Saturday. Both sides are tied on points and sit next to each other in the standings.

Sion vs Young Boys Preview

Sion have won twice in their last 12 league matches, losing five times. After 16 rounds of matches, they boast five wins and five draws, which leaves them in eighth spot on 20 points. The hosts have endured an inconsistent run this season – a trend they will need to break to improve their campaign.

Sion made a return to the top flight 27 years after their last appearance in 1996-97. They won the Swiss Challenge League – second tier – last season to earn a promotion. The hosts won their last home meeting against Luzern 4-2, which could serve as inspiration for Saturday’s clash. They defeated Young Boys in their last visit to Stade de Tourbillon.

Young Boys are gradually recovering from their Champions League humiliation at the hands of Atalanta. The Swiss side were sent to the cleaners at home 6-1 by the visiting Italian team last Tuesday. However, Young Boys have won twice since then, beating St.Gallen 3-1 in league action and Schaffhausen 1-0 in a cup competition.

The visitors won the Swiss Super League for the 17th time last season. Their objective for this campaign is nothing short of a successful defense of their title. However, they are encountering a slow start and must close the gap before it gets even wider. They sit ninth on 20 points, trailing the top spot by nine points.
