Young Boys vs Manchester City Prediction and Betting Tips | 25th October 2023

Young Boys will take on reigning European champions Manchester City at the Wankdorf Stadium on Wednesday in a Group G encounter in the Champions League.

Young Boys are yet to pick up their first win of the 2023-24 Champions League campaign. After falling to a 3-1 loss to RB Leipzig at home in their group stage opener, Raphael Wicky's men were held to a 2-2 draw by Red Star Belgrade in their subsequent outing.

They are in desperate need of a reversal of fortunes but will have their work cut out against the absolute juggernaut we call Manchester City. Young Boys are unbeaten in their last four matches across all competitions but will have to play out of their skins to earn a positive result against the Premier League giants.

Manchester City had to work hard to eke out a 2-1 win against Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday. With Rodri back from suspension, City looked well-balanced on the pitch and it helped them get back to winning ways after suffering two consecutive losses in the Premier League.

City have picked up two wins from their first two group-stage games of the new Champions League season. They beat Red Star Belgrade 3-1 in their first game of the group stage before dispatching RB Leipzig by the same scoreline away from home.

City will look to get back to their best in emphatic fashion as they take on Young Boys on Wednesday.
