A strong away win for Grasshopper against Sion the last match, as Mamadou Kaly Sene, Hayao Kawabe and Djibril Diani were on target. Midfielder Dominik Schmid was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.85 (out of ten) in that game. Schmid served one assist, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 3 of 5 times and had 29 successful passes (of 34 total).

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Zurich that ended 3-3.

Young Boys form and stats

3-1-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Young Boys, who have the most scored goals (18) away in Super League, in their Super League matches away.

Young lost away at Villarreal (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Nicolas Ngamaleu got a match rating of 7.61 in that game, top player of the team. Ngamaleu hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 4 of 5 times and had 29 successful passes (of 32 total).

It was a Super League defeat before that one as the away game against St. Gallen wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.

The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Young alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (18 from 6 played). In the opposite end, Young have conceded 9 goals in their away games.
