FC Zurich
- While only one point separates FC Zurich and BSC Young Boys Bern in the Super League standings after the first nine games of the 2025-2026 campaign, there are clear differences between the teams that could make this an interesting game, especially from the perspective of our FC Zurich vs BSC Young Boys Bern prediction.
- The hosts, who have won their last two league games at Letzigrund, are playing a more positional and possession-based game with more variation of tempo than their visitors under Mitchell van der Gaag.
- Zurich come into this game on the back of two straight defeats - 3-0 away to Grasshopper and 1-0 at Lugano - and Young Boys are in similar form after consecutive losses following a 5-0 drubbing at Lausanne-Sports and a home defeat to St Gallen.
BSC Young Boys Bern
- Bern’s new boss Giorgio Contini, who has been in place since December 2024, has opted for a very different style - a high-pressing system with a preference for direct balls, quick transitions and overloading the wings with his flexible 4-4-2 or 4-3-3. Given this tactical contrast, the FC Zurich vs BSC Young Boys Bern betting tips will consider both teams' approach to possession and counterattacks.
- It’s a system that can be vulnerable to counterattacks and the Young Boys have been a little inconsistent so far with two wins and three losses from their last five.
- Young Boys have conceded an average of 2.75 goals per game in their away Super League matches in 2025/26 (one win, one draw, two defeats).
- However, the visitors did bounce back to win 2-0 at FCSB in their Europa League away leg.
Head-to-Head
BSC Young Boys Bern have won two and drawn two of their last four Super League meetings with FC Zurich .
Key Players
- Steven Zuber (3 goals in 8) is Zurich’s danger man, but Chris Bedia’s 6 in 9 Super League appearances is a clear danger with three of those coming in their last seven games.
- Cheveyo Tsawa has chipped in with two of those six goals, so the two forwards will have to be watched closely.
Betting Insights
- Young Boys also arrive in better form with a recent European away win under their belts, so we’re backing them to edge this one at around 2.35, which is a slight favorite considering the odds of 2.75 for the home team and 3.55 for a draw. This is why the FC Zurich vs BSC Young Boys Bern betting tips lean slightly in favor of the away side in this matchup.
- Both clubs have been conceding too many goals, however, and we feel that 1.44 on ‘Both Teams To Score’ represents a strong option in this encounter as Young Boys Bern are always in the game to make it a 50/50 affair.
