Young Boys vs Roma Predictions

• Both teams scored in five of Young Boys’ six UEL group games last season.
• Roma scored in all but one of their nine UEL fixtures last term.
• Roma won only one of their last five away assignments in the competition.

Goals at both ends likely in Switzerland

Young Boys have become continental regulars in recent seasons, and the Swiss outfit proved tough competitors in the Europa League last term, despite their failure to qualify past the group stage.

Gerardo Seoane’s side managed to score in all six matches in the section they shared with Porto, Feyenoord and Rangers, while the Portuguese giants were the only team to topple Young Boys at the Wankdorf Stadium.

Roma made it to the Last 16 of last year’s tournament before their elimination at the hands of eventual winners Sevilla, though it’s worth noting that the Giallorossi kept just three clean sheets in nine matches en-route to their final fixture.

Their 2-0 loss to Sevilla was the only contest Roma failed to register in themselves however, and the Serie A behemoths will expect to find the net again in Switzerland this week.

Young Boys’ record suggests they have the tools to unlock their visitor’s defence too however, and that in turn makes the both teams to score market a favoured option for Thursday’s game, while our correct score prediction points towards a 1-1 draw.

Roma won just once in five attempts outside the Eternal City in last season’s Europa League campaign, and we’re tipping a dangerous Young Boys team to take a point against their more illustrious, but poor travelling opponents.
