Top match between Young Boys Bern and FC Servette. Prediction, 26.07.25
Two championship contenders meet on matchday 1
Young Boys Bern will not be satisfied with their last season, as they finished 12 points behind champions FC Basel. They want to do better this year and have a serious say in the championship battle. Alongside FC Basel, FC Servette were also ahead of the hosts in the table last season. The visitors will be more than satisfied with this result. After finishing second, third and second in the last three seasons, they will also be looking to finally win the title. We can therefore expect a real top match on matchday 1 of the Swiss Super League. It's an evenly matched game, even if Young Boys are slightly favored at home.

The Young Boys want to attack at the top again
The team won the Super League title 2 years in a row. Last season, however, they struggled considerably and ultimately only finished third in the table. Naturally, they would like to attack again this year and recapture the championship title. To do so, they must not suffer so many defeats again. In addition to 17 wins, they have lost 11 games and 10 more ended in a draw. The club decided to change coach back in December 2024. Giorgio Contini took over and led the team to third place, winning 12 of 24 games and stabilizing defensively with 25 goals conceded in 24 games. The form curve towards the end of the season also showed a clear upward trend. The team remained unbeaten in the last 4 matchdays and picked up 2 wins. One of these victories was a 6:2 home win against champions FC Basel! During this period, they also played their last match against Servette. This ended in a 0-0 draw away from home, having previously won 1-0 away from home. Noteworthy: Under their new coach, they only conceded one home defeat and that was in the Champions League against Red Star Belgrade in January. They have not lost at home since then.

BSC Young Boys Bern
System: 4-3-3.
Is Servette now ready for the title?
In the past three years, the club has finished second, third and second. Last season, they finished runners-up behind Basel and ahead of their opponents Young Boys. Once again, the team will be satisfied with this result, but they now want to go for the title. This should be possible once again with successful coach Thomas Häberli. Although he achieved 2nd place in the league, the team had already failed in the qualifying round of the Conference League and was also surprisingly beaten 2:1 by FC Schaffhausen in the 2nd round of the Swiss Cup. Despite these setbacks, they managed to win 17 of 28 games in the league, but the results were often close, as shown by the goal difference of just +9. Servette got stronger and stronger towards the end of the season and, like their opponents, remained unbeaten for the last 4 matchdays. This included a 4:1 win against Lugano and a 3:4 away win at FC Luzern. Their last defeat came on matchday 34 away to champions FC Basel. At that time, they suffered a very clear 5:1 defeat. However, they have managed to score at least one goal in 6 of their last 7 league games.

The Young Boys are slight favorites at home - Our prediction
Young Boys are a force at home, having not lost there since January. They have also remained unbeaten in their last 2 matches against Servette. With a draw no bet bet 1 you still get odds of 1.50. We don't expect many goals, which was hardly the case in the last duels. We therefore consider "under 2.5 goals" to be a slightly riskier betting recommendation.
