Neuchatel Xamax hosts Young Boys in round 33 of the Swiss Super League. The match will be played on Thursday, July 23rd at Stade de la Maladière (Neuchâtel)
Under the leadership of new coach Henchoz, who took office three weeks ago, Xamax finally managed to interrupt its 7-match streak without victories in the last round of the championship. It beat Luzern. However, even this feat (the victory in the current championship cannot be called otherwise) does not allow it to leave the last place in the standings. The team gained only five victories in 32 rounds. Xamax has four rounds to win back a 2-points gap to Sion that takes the play-out place. And the hosts can try to jump to the saving 8th line, but Thun has a 5-point advantage.

BSC Young Boys is the leader again! Having lost two games and having shared points with Servette after quarantine, the Yellow-Blacks won convincing victories (4-2 and 5-0) in the last two rounds of the championship. In turn, they took advantage of the mistake made by St. Gallen, which climbed to the throne of the standings. The latter lost to Thun in the last match, so Young Boys regained the leadership in the championship. Taught by bitter experience, the team is unlikely to lose it for four rounds before the finish of the championship. The calendar is quite favorable, and the Yellow-Blacks will have only one serious rival in the last round (St. Gallen).
Although the coefficient on the leader's victory is rather high, there is no reason to doubt it. Young Boys are in great shape again, and they are racing towards the third champion’s title in a row. Did Xamax's last victory influence bookmakers' opinions so much? A simple coincidence helped the outsider to win. It scored the winning goal in the 91st minute. "The Bees" sting Xamax wherever they catch it. They won 24 times in the last 30 head-to-head meetings. In this championship, the leader won in all three matches with the outsider. And two games ended with Over 2.5 goals scored. The champion can score three goals against the last team by itself. It has already scored 74 goals in 32 rounds, and 22 matches of the tournament ended with Over 2.5 goals scored. Young Boys scored more than two goals in 15 of them. In turn, Xamax suffered 11 defeats with such an outcome. I think the leader will win once again, and the fans will see at least three goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Young Boys to win and Over 2.5 goals scored
