Young Boys vs Basel Match Preview

Young Boys' performance against Porto in the game for the Europa League was great. Unfortunately, Gerardo Seoane's side didn't take a positive result since the final 2-1 didn't correspond to their decent effort. In their domestic League, they are coming from a 2-2 draw with Lucerne on the road so they lost the top-place of the table. There were only Cup games last week and the 'top' teams of the country had an easy schedule, as their opponents were pretty weak. That was a chance for their coaches to measurethe potential of their reserves. However, that didn't happen for Young Boys, since Gerardo Seoane has chosen his first eleven and smashed Freienbach (11-2).

Basel had a great start in the Europa League group stage crashing Krasnodar (5-0) sending a message that they overcame their elimination from the Champions League. Now they are coming in this big clash with a high flying mood, as they are on top of the table of the Swiss Super League after a long time. 

It's a big clash between two teams who prefer an offensive approach, but they also have defensive worries. I expect goals from both sides, over 2.5 goals is my final call.
