Yverdon vs Young Boys Prediction

Yverdon are yet to register their first win of the season but their visitors' struggles mean they might fancy their chances of doing so here. Their games this term have largely been feisty affairs.

Young Boys have have started their title defense horrendously, losing their first three games of the campaign. However, they brought their losing run to an end last time out. Their porous defense has been a source for concern, as they have conceded at least two goals in every league game played so far.

We are backing the visitors to claim maximum points with a narrow victory and goals at both ends.

Prediction: Yverdon 2-3 Young Boys
