Our Prediction Tip

Feyenoord will win this match.

The meeting back in October, a 2-0 win for Young Boys, thanks to two penalties, was the first competitive action for them against Feyenoord.  They did, however, also play in a friendly in 2018, winning 3-0 at home in it as well.

FEY vs BSCY Betting Tips and Odds

Bet365 have the following odds available for this match:

Feyenoord are at 6/5, a draw is at 27/10, and Young Boys are at 21/10.

Group G sees the visitors in this tie, Young Boys, on top of the standings through two matches with six points.  FC Porto, heavy favorites to easily move on, are on four points, while Rangers are on the same number.  Feyenoord are on three, giving all four sides a very good chance of still being able to progress.  It means this one should go right down to the final match of the group.

Feyenoord have enjoyed, or endured, a woeful start to their domestic season, losing their manager as a result of the poor showings.  They come into this match in tenth place n 17 points,  full seven behind PSV for third, which is an automatic Europa League qualification slot.  They will have a ton of work to do, but they did win last time out, so that is a positive.  At home so far this season, they have five wins, three draws, and a loss.

Young Boys, meanwhile, will enter this match in good domestic form.  So good, in fact, that they are on top of the pile in Switzerland with 28 points from their opening 13 matches played.  They are just one in front of Basel and they lost for the first time last time out, but it’s still been a great start nonetheless.  On their travels, they have taken five wins, three draws, and two losses thus far, with the loss to Servette being one of them and a loss at Porto being the other.

No for both sides scoring can be had for 6/4 at Ladbrokes.

Betfair have Berghuis scoring anytime at 2.87.

Feyenoord vs Young Boys Prediction

Sometimes trends and stats are just too hard to pass up on.  Young Boys have enjoyed extremely little success on their travels, so it’s just too hard to try and make a case for them.  Feyenoord’s new momentum continues with a victory.

Correct Score Prediction: Feyenoord 2-0 Young Boys

Feyenoord Team News

Dick Advocaat will be missing defender Sven van Beek due to injuries here for this fixture.

Feyenoord Key Man

Feyenoord, even with the form they have shown recently, have a lot of nice pieces, and one of those is former Swansea man Leroy Fer.  The midfielder scored some amazing goals in the Premier League and offers his side bags of experience at the top level to give them some help here.  Out wide, Steven Berghuis is a huge prospect of the future to watch.  He scored twice at the weekend as they finally won again, showing just why Chelsea and co. have been so heavily linked to him in the past.  

Feyenoord Team Form

Feyenoord have a win, three losses, and a draw in their last five matches:

0-3 win at VVV
4-0 loss at Ajax
2-0 loss at Young Boys (UEL)
1-1 home draw vs Heracles
4-2 loss at Fortuna Sittard

Feyenoord Predicted Starting Line up

Expected Line up: 4-3-3

Young Boys Team News

Gerardo Seoane has a ton of players out with injuries so far, with center backs Fabian Lustenberger and Mohamed Camara, midfielders Gianluca Gaudino, Vincent Sierro, Christopher Martins Pereira, and Sandro Lauper, and forward Miralem Sulejmani and Guillaume Hoarau all out.

Young Boys Key Man

It was not their finest weekend this past week as they fell to a loss, but Young Boys can still rely upon Jean Nsame up front.  The Cameroon man has bundled home 11 goals in the Swiss division thus far, giving them a ton of confidence in him.  If it’s not him, then it could well be Ivory Coast man Roger Assale.  He’s got just three in the Swiss division, but he’s scored twice already in this competition, which will give him plenty of momentum ahead of this match up with the Dutch side.  

Young Boys Team Form

Young Boys have a loss and four wins in their last five matches:

3-0 loss at Servette
4-0 home win vs Zurich (Swiss Cup)
4-2 home win vs Thun
2-0 home win vs Feyenoord (UEL)
4-1 home win vs Neuchatel Xamax

Young Boys Predicted Starting Line up

Expected Line up: 4-4-2

It's been very ugly for Feyenoord of late. They have changed managers due to a woeful run of form and come into this match needing a win to make it back-to-back victories, something they have not had for some time. Luckily for them, they are going to have a great opportunity to get it here. Young Boys have done 'OK' on the road in Swiss competition, but they have not done well in Europe. That keeps up as they fall to the Dutch.
Young Boys are winless in their last five away European matches (1D, 4L).
