The Lugano & Young Boys managers M. Jacobacci and G. Seoane are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Super League league table.

Insights:
  • Lugano has the fewest conceded goals (4) at home in Super League
  • Young Boys has the fewest conceded goals (10) in Super League

Lugano have less rest than Young Boys in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Super League game only three days ago. That game was an away game at Sion, so at least Lugano are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Young Boys have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 16-10-9 (win-draw-loss) from 35 matches.

Lugano form and stats

Overall Super League stats at home this season for Lugano, who have the fewest conceded goals (4) at home in Super League, are 3-2-1 (wins-draw-losses). The trend of drawing games is also valid regardless of arena as Lugano has four draws from their last four matches.

2-2 away at Young Boys before that.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Lugano as they are travelling to their away game against Luzern in the Super League. That match is four days after this one.

The Lugano fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 6 in 6 matches. Lugano have only conceded 4 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Young Boys form and stats

Young Boys, who have the fewest conceded goals (10) in Super League, have an excellent away record in the Super League so far with 4-2-0 from 6 games. Young has been amazing away for a time now, winning four in a row on their travels. The last time they went home with a point loss was against Servette.

Two travels in a row for Young, whose manager G. Seoane could celebrate last time after the Super League win against St. Gallen. Ahead of that match was the victory versus St. Gallen at their stadium, the result 2-1.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Young manager G. Seoane as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Vaduz.

The travelling fans enjoy Young Boys's attacking play in away games, having scored 10 goals in 6 league matches away. Young's manager G. Seoane has created a great defensive setup working very nicely in away games with only 3 conceded goals. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
