Tirana have traveled here for an interesting Europa League fight against Young Boys. Prepare for the match with this cup preview!
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Tirana have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 1-0-0 (win-draw-loss) from one match.
Tirana have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1500 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Young Boys form and stats
Last season their Europa League adventure ended in the group stage.1 victory, 0 draws and 0 defeats. That’s what Young Boys have to build on here at Stadion Neufeld in the Super League. Young has won so many consecutive home games (15 in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Stadion Neufeld. We remember; it was Basel.
Young drew their last game, 0-0 away at Sion. Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Zurich.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Young, as the Super League home game vs Vaduz is only three days away.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Young Boys at home in the league. 2 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
Tirana form and stats
10-3-5 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Tirana in their Superliga matches away.
Tirana's previous game was their home loss versus Crvena Zvezda (0-1). Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Dinamo Tbilisi.
The travelling fans enjoy Tirana's attacking play in away games, having scored 32 goals in 18 league matches away. Tirana have conceded 20 goals in these away matches.
