Overview.
Unbeaten at home this season in all competitions, 13-time Swiss champions Young Boys can also boast an impressive 11 wins from 15 previous Europa League (EL) group stage matches. However, six of their last seven EL fixtures saw both teams score, so the hosts may struggle defensively. In fact, the Bern-based outfit have now seen both teams score in their last seven consecutive competitive fixtures, with four of the last five witnessing the opening goal netted within 20 minutes – something that’s occurred in two of Young Boys’ three European fixtures this term.
On a five-game winning streak (in all competitions), with four coming ‘to nil’, Rangers travel here after failing to win away in last season’s EL group stage , but have scored eight goals across their four European away games this term. The visitors are unbeaten this season away from home, and have scored the opener in all but two of their away games, with those two exceptions being two EL goalless draws. Furthermore, having notched up five consecutive competitive away clean sheets, and in seven of their nine European games this season (home/away), the Glaswegians could be tough to break down.
