Young Boys vs Stade-Lausanne Prediction
Young Boys missed the chance to go top of the table with their draw at home to Servette over the weekend. Raphael Wicky's side will get a second opportunity to make amends when they welcome Lausanne Ouchy in their rescheduled game.
Stade-Lausanne have struggled to get going in what is their first season in the top-flight. They look primed to be relegated back to the Challenge League after just one season.
Young Boys tend to get the job done against the lower-ranked sides and barring an unlikely upset, there should only be one winner here. We are backing the hosts to claim a comfortable victory and clean sheet.
