Young Boys and Servette will battle for three points in their opening game of the new Swiss Super League campaign on Saturday (July 26th). The game will be played at Stadion Wankdorf.
The hosts have not been in action since concluding their last league campaign with a 1-1 draw away to Lugano to finish third in May 2025. They finalized preparations for the new campaign with a 5-4 defeat to Bochum, having led 4-1 at the break.
Servette, meanwhile, kick-started their campaign with a shock 1-0 away win over Viktoria Plzen in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League qualifier. Samuel Mraz broke the deadlock in the 13th minute and his goal proved to be the difference between the two sides.
They will turn their focus back to the league scene as they aim to build on their runners-up finish last term.

Young Boys vs Servette Prediction
Young Boys had a relatively disappointing campaign last season. They finished in third spot but will be hoping to reclaim the title. They had a less than ideal pre-season campaign, failing to win their last three friendlies.
Servette, for their part, would be buoyed by their surprise win in Czechia over Plzen. This gives them a narrow advantage in the tie but their focus is likely to be more channeled to the return fixture on the continent.
The home side should claim a narrow victory with goals at both ends.
