Competition: Switzerland Super League

Match begins: 14:00 (UTC)
Venue: swissporarena (17800 seats)

The season is still fairly new and the Super League table has to be read with caution. So far Luzern find themselves in 9th position and Young Boys are placed 1st.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

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 (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 23-2-6 (win-draw-loss) from 31 matches.
