Young Boys vs Zurich Prediction and Betting Tips | April 21st 2024

Young Boys will host Zurich at Wankdorf Stadion on Monday in the final round of the 2024-25 Swiss Super League regular season. The hosts will be looking to end the regular season with a result that could potentially see them move up to second place.

YB have dropped points in their last two games, most recently suffering an embarrassing 5-0 defeat to Luzern last time out. The hosts had a difficult first half to the season but have since stepped things up, moving up to fourth place, eight points off the top, and will be hoping to mount a late title defense when the championship playoffs begin.

Zurich still have all to play for in the final game of the regular season as they could miss out on championship playoff qualification if they fail to get any points on Monday. The visitors received a 4-0 thrashing from league leaders Basel last Saturday to make it three games without a win and are now only three points clear of eighth-placed St. Gallen, who have a more robust goal difference than Ricardo Moniz’s side.
