Young Boys welcome GC Zurich to Stadion Wankdorf for a Swiss Super League matchday eight clash on Saturday (September 28th). The hosts are coming into the game on the back of a 4-1 away win over Winterthur last weekend.
They went into the break with a one-goal lead, courtesy of Joel Monteiro's 32nd-minute strike. Labinot Bajrami drew the game level two minutes into the second half but Monteiro completed his hat-trick while Silvere Ganvoula also scored a goal to help Young Boys leave with all three points.
Grasshoppers, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a 2-2 draw at home to Servette. They took the lead through Mathieu Choiniere's 23rd-minute strike but Dereck Kutesa and Usman Simbakoli scored to put Servette ahead at the break. Lee Young-jun equalized in the 54th minute.
The draw left them in 10th spot in the table, having garnered five points from seven games. Young Boys are one point better off in ninth place.

Young Boys vs GC Zurich Prediction
Young Boys have had a title defense to forget to this point, having managed just one win all-season long (three losses). That victory last weekend after a five-game winless start could signify a return to form for Patrick Rahmen's side.
Grasshoppers have also had just one win from seven league games to this point and are winless at this ground since 2017.
Six of Young Boys' seven league games this term have seen both sides find the back of the net and we are backing this trend to continue in a narrow win for the hosts.
