Super League Betting Preview: Basel vs Young Boys

Basel take on Young Boys at St. Jakob Park, with kick-off set for 14:30 on Saturday 4 April.

Young Boys have a strong chance against Basel and we’ll side with the visitors on the Asian Handicap. It’s worth chancing the -139 with a +0.25 goal headstart, meaning that our stake is split between 0 and +0.5.

Stephan Lichtsteiner's side had the majority of the ball boasting 58% possession and three shots on target, while Ibrahim Salah and Benie Traore each scored one goal.

Young Boys hosted FC Lugano at Wankdorfstadion in their previous game, ending in a 1-1 draw. The Bern club recorded 53% possession and managed eight shots on goal, with Alvyn Sanches on the scoresheet.
