Young Boys vs Aston Villa Preview

Young Boys

Young Boys, the reigning Swiss champions, have had a surprisingly tough start to the season. They have lost three and drawn three in the first six Swiss Super League matches, putting them in last place. This starkly contrasts their recent dominance, having secured six league titles since 2017.

The club management could have sacked Patrick Rahmen, but in the Champions League qualification, Young Boys unexpectedly managed to knock out one of the main giants of Turkish football, Galatasaray

The Turkish club has acquired many solid-level players from the top European leagues in recent years, which made them the big favorites ahead of the clash.

However, Young Boys, in their first match, showed a well-organized game of fast vertical attacks, with creative maneuvers in the final third, which helped them score three goals. Although the Swiss club’s defense sometimes lacked cohesion and good positioning, Rahmen’s team fully deserved the 3-2 victory.

In the return leg in Istanbul, Young Boys adapted to a low-block strategy, capitalizing on quick counterattacks to secure a 1-0 win and advance to the group stage. 

It’s hard to predict whether Young Boys will be as successful in their attack against Aston Villa as they were against Galatasaray. Still, overall, the Swiss team is well-placed to surprise in the first round of the Champions League.

Facing Aston Villa in the first round will be a true test, but with all key players fit and their counterattacking prowess, Young Boys could be primed to surprise their English opponents.

Aston Villa

Aston Villa have established themselves as one of the most entertaining teams in the Premier League, with 13 goals scored in their matches so far – seven in their favor and six conceded. 

At the start of the season, Unai Emery’s team clearly faces significant defensive issues, especially on the flanks because they play too narrowly in defense. 

Due to Matty Cash’s injury, the Villa coach is forced to use nominal midfielder 20-year-old Lamare Bogarde as a right back, who easily allows opponents to get past him in one-on-one situations, although he can be useful in attacking phases. 

Lucas Digne also presents vulnerabilities on the left flank, further exposing Villa’s defense. Moreover, Villa’s central defenders occasionally make serious errors in maintaining a high offside line, as seen in the match against Everton.

Unai Emery’s attack has been full of bright ideas and creative solutions since the first round of Premier League. 

Aston Villa has shown a great ability to overload opponents’ holding zone in all matches, as well as to quickly create a numerical advantage of 5v4 in the attacking line against their opponents’ defense.

In the 2-3-5 formation, Aston Villa has developed a powerful connection among attacking players in the central zone in front of the opponent’s penalty area, which easily pulls apart the opponent’s defense and creates dangerous moments. 

At the same time, Unai Emery’s team can make quick transitions from defense to attack and successfully utilize passes behind the opponents’ backs. Morgan Rogers, Jhon Durán, and a resurgent Ollie Watkins can pose a significant threat to any defensive line in European football.

Young Boys vs Aston Villa Prediction

  • Football Pick: 2X (Aston Villa won`t lose)
  • Odds: 1.21 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Young Boys 1-3 Aston Villa

Young Boys had a mixed preseason and struggled at the start of the new Swiss Super League season. Meanwhile, Aston Villa earned nine points in their first four matches, showing strong attacking play.

While it might seem straightforward to confidently choose Aston Villa to win, Unai Emery’s team has defensive problems that the Swiss club could exploit. Therefore, it’s safer to choose an option where the visitors don’t lose.

Young Boys vs Aston Villa Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Football Pick: 1st half. Total Over 0.5
  • Odds: 1.26 (22Bet)

Almost in all matches of these teams this season, goals have been scored in the first half. Considering both teams’ defensive problems and strong attacking capabilities, we could expect at least one goal to be scored in the first half of the game.
