Betting Insights
- We're not going to shy away from saying that Young Boys look the likelier winner in this encounter, but the odds are a little off at 2.38 for the visitors, who are slightly ahead of the 2.55 for Lausanne and 3.95 for the tie.
- With the game set up in a nice clash of opposing styles, we'll take over 2.5 goals at 1.4, while Both Teams To Score at 1.35 looks like a very fair price.
- Lausanne have a respectable but not ruthless home record this season (W0, D1, L0), scoring just 1.00 per-game, so they will make a fight of it on their own patch.
Prediction
Lausanne's home advantage and strong H2H record in recent years gives us cause to believe this will be a lively encounter rather than a stroll in the park.
