The Swiss Super League continues this week and will see Young Boys host St. Gallen at the Wankdork Stadion on Tuesday night.
Young Boys have struggled for form under new boss Matteo Vanetta. They were beaten 3-1 by Lugano in their last game, with Mohamed Camara's early second-half opener being canceled out minutes later by their clinical opponents.
Young Boys remain third in the league standings with 53 points from 33 games. Their latest result saw Lugano make up ground on them in the race for the Europa Conference League qualifiers and they will now be looking to widen the gap this week.
St. Gallen have also had mixed results in the league of late. They were beaten 2-1 by recently crowned champions Zurich in their last game and were fortunate not to have lost by a wider margin as their opponents squandered multiple chances.
The visitors sit fifth in the league table with 47 points from 33 games. They will be looking to shake off their latest result as they continue their push for Europe.
