Young Boys vs Inter Milan

, KO: 20:00 Oct 23, 2024, Stadion Wankdorf
Inter Milan

Inter Milan are targeting a second straight win in the UEFA Champions League as they travel to Young Boys on Wednesday. The Nerazzurri have shown their quality on their travels and should be too strong for their Swiss hosts, who are struggling in the competition.

It has been a poor start to the Champions League for Young Boys, who have lost their two matches in the competition. Joel Magnin’s men are also yet to score a goal, suffering a 3-0 home defeat to Aston Villa before falling 5-0 at Barcelona last time out.

The poor form is not just limited to the Champions as Young Boys have claimed two wins and suffered four defeats in their last six matches across all competitions. A small positive for the Swiss side is that one of the wins came last weekend as they beat Luzern 2-1 in a Super League fixture.

In contrast to Young Boys’ struggles, Inter Milan have made a solid start to the Champions League as they are yet to taste defeat or concede after two matches. Having begun with a 0-0 draw at Manchester City, they eased to a 4-0 victory over Red Star Belgrade in their previous fixture.

Inter Milan are also showing some good form across all competitions where they have won their last four matches. Simone Inzaghi’s men have also won their last two away matches, including a 1-0 victory at Roma in a Serie A fixture on Sunday.

How the bookies view it: Easy pickings for Inter

Inter Milan have been installed as overwhelming favourites among the bookies and are priced at 1/3 with Betfred. Young Boys are considered outsiders with a home win valued at 7/1 while a draw is set at odds of 4/1 by Betfred.

Head to head: No previous meetings

This will be the first ever meeting between Young Boys and Inter Milan.

Players to watch: Martinez the man

Lautaro Martinez is slowly finding his range again and has now been on target four times in the last four matches for Inter Milan. The Argentine forward will be the one to watch on Wednesday and is priced at 21/20 by Betfred to maintain his scoring run.

Inter Milan will be keen to maintain their defensive record in the Champions League as they are yet to concede in the competition. Stefan De Vrij and Alessandro Bastoni should feature at the back and can lead the Nerazzurri to another clean sheet at 11/10 with Betfred.

Probable line-ups

Young Boys have injury concerns with Tanguy Zoukrou, Facinet Conte and Saidy Janko are ruled out of Wednesday’s clash. Cedric Itten was on target at the weekend and should continue to lead the line for the Swiss side.

Inter Milan lost Hakan Calhanoglou and Francesco Acerbi to injury on Sunday and both men are likely to miss the trip to Switzerland. De Vrij and Davide Frattesi are likely to be handed starts on Wednesday after replacing both players at the weekend.

Young Boys: von Ballmoos, Conte, Bentley, Camara, Athekame, Monteiro, Niasse, Males, Ugrinic, Elia, Itten
Inter Milan: Sommer, Pavard, De Vrij, Bastoni, Dumfries, Frattesi, Mkhitaryan, Barella, Dimarco, Thuram, Martinez

Anything else catch the eye?

Inter Milan won to nil in their previous Champions League fixture and could be set for a repeat at 13/10 by Betfred. Having scored four in that fixture, a -1 handicap could also be considered at evens with Betfred.

The Nerazzurri scored in both halves in the win over Red Star Belgrade and could be set for a similar pattern at 19/20 with Betfred. The Serie A champions could also be tipped to win both halves at 2/1 with Betfred.
