Let's look at this entertaining game in the Super League. Winterthur is in the 9th place from participating in five games. They welcome Young Boys who are placed 1st from five matches.

Insights:
  • Winterthur have the most dropped points from leading position (7) in Super League
  • Young Boys have the most scored goals (11) in Super League

15-14-12 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Young Boys when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 41 matches are 72-52 (scored/conceded).

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Europa Conference League game only three days ago. That game, against Anderlecht, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Young Boys.

Winterthur form and stats

Winterthur have played three Super League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 2 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

Winterthur are returning here after guesting Muri in a Swiss Cup match and winning with a 7-0 scoreline.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a Super League home game that ended 1-1 versus Zürich.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Winterthur at home in the league. 3 on target and 6 scored by the opposition; from 3 matches.

Young Boys form and stats

Young Boys are still undefeated on their travels in the Super League. They have only played two games though, winning one and drawing the other.

Young Boys have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper David von Ballmoos. It's been 221 minutes since they last conceded .

Two trips in a row for Young Boys, whose manager Vanetta could celebrate last time after the Europa Conference League win against Anderlecht. Zesiger was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.81. The defender Zesiger won 6 of 8 duels.

Before that, the Swiss Cup victory away at Schoenberg.

It's early days yet, but Young Boys has scored 3 and conceded 0 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
