Lucerne vs Young Boys Predictions

• Lucerne were beaten in just four of their 18 home starts last season (W7, D7).
• The Luminaries held Young Boys to a 2-2 draw in last term’s corresponding fixture.
• Young Boys dropped points in seven of their 18 away trips last season despite romping to a fourth straight league title.

Hosts can hold the champions again

Lucerne managed to hold champions Young Boys to a 2-2 draw here last term, and they could repeat the feat again in this Saturday’s season curtain raiser at swissporarena.

Lucerne secured a creditable fifth place finish in 2020/21 and that was largely down to their solid home form. The Luminaries lost just four of their 18 starts at swissporarena (W7, D7) and won three of their last four here to end the campaign strongly.

While Young Boys absolutely demolished the rest of the field to secure a fourth consecutive Super League title by a mammoth 29 points, they did drop points in seven of their 18 away trips last season including that aforementioned draw here.

After a disappointing midweek goalless stalemate away to Slovan Bratislava in UEFA Champions League Qualifying, the Bern outfit look a tad short in the betting for this clash at odds-on and a small stakes wager on the draw makes far greater appeal – especially as the visitors will have next week’s second leg against the Slovakians in mind.

Alongside the draw, we’re also going for a 1-1 correct score prediction for the action at swissporarena.
