"Young Boys have conceded twice in each of the Super League's last four rounds and look vulnerable against visitors who have struck at least once in each of their last nine away games"

Back Over 3.5 Goals @ 2.001/1 in Young Boys v Lugano

Young Boys have been in exuberant form recently and Tobias Gourlay expects more goals as Zdenek Zeman rides into town

Young Boys v Lugano
Saturday 16:45

In the end the attacking was hellishly bad in Mexico overnight. Insert your own comment about the tipping, but a goalless game at the Estadio Corregidora certainly leaves us looking useless.

Onwards and downwards, nowhere has seen more Super League goals this season than Young Boys' Stade de Suisse. Second-bottom Lugano have the worst defence in the league, but have scored as many away goals as anyone else outside the top four. And so, once again, it seems like Switzerland is the place for neutrals to be this afternoon.

Adi Hutter's hosts have conceded twice in each of the Super League's last four rounds and look vulnerable against visitors who have struck at least once in each of their last nine away games. In fact, the Young Boys have conceded on each of their last nine appearances on home turf.

Zdenek Zeman is an old friend of the column who continues to play all-out attack at all times. Eight of Lugano's last 10 away games have delivered Over 2.5 Goals and, with a bit of help from their prolific hosts, they can get this one to the next level.
