Young Boys haven’t lost in Group G since their opening game away at Porto and the visitors have claimed a win since that match either and four points separate the two clubs heading into Thursday’s clash. Group G remains wide open heading into game week five but bottom of the table Porto really need a win on Thursday to keep their hopes of qualifying for the knockout stage alive.
All of the stats suggest that a double chance bet on the hosts is the best way to go this Thursday and I have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0 in favour of Young Boys.
Young Boys have won both of their home games in Group G against Feyenoord and Rangers so have the confidence and the ability to secure all three points on Thursday to keep that 100% home record going, while Porto have lost both of their away games against Feyenoord and Rangers. Young Boys have scored two goals in each of their home games in Group G, only conceding once, while Porto have conceded two goals in both of their away games and are yet to score on the road.
Young Boys haven’t lost at home domestically this season, securing six wins and two draws, while Porto three away games in all competitions and have looked off the pace in Europe in a group they were expected to qualify from. The hosts score an average of 2.88 goals per home game in the Super League while Porto only score an average of 1.5 goals on the road.
86% of Young Boys home games and 67% of Porto’s away games have featured over 1.5 goals and the hosts haven’t failed to score at home this season, keeping clean sheets in 25% of their matches. Under 2.5 goals were produced in four of Porto’s last six matches in all competitions, including the 2-0 away defeat to Rangers, and the visitors have only conceded more than two goals in one match this season (away at Krasnodar in a Champions League qualifier).
I had confident that a double chance bet on the hosts will payout on Thursday evening and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0. Young Boys head into the match as the form favourites two wins, one draw, and one defeat from their four group games and will be out for revenge on Thursday after suffering their one and only defeat in the Europa League away at Porto in September. Young Boys are unbeaten at home and, while Porto boasts the better of the two squads in terms of overall quality, the hosts have won their two home games in Group G so far, scoring two goals on each occasion, and look the more likely of the two to qualify.
